Okay, that was enough bullshit.
I won't say you anything, don't wanna be hypocrite,
all I want's a good fuck, regularly if possible.
I hope those two are compossible.
I was trying to do a lot of things so far
(you could say some of them are bizarre from me):
writing, rapping, singing, poetry, acting,
programming, and of course, creating languages.
I wanna create, I wanna be successful,
and helpful as well, but that can be stressful.
Merj nagyon álmodni, ez hazudták korábban,

You don't give a fuck though...
No one does so...
Tell me friend of mine, why am I working?
For what am I trying? Or even creating?
These are unanswered questions, nobody sayin' anything,
unless you do so now, I should be finishing here.

Writing began at 08 nov 2021 and was put on hold for the better part of 2022 until publishing.
Throughout my years as a writer, I found myself unable to write on command. Every time I am faced with restrictions, deadlines or the possibility of working with unlike-minded individuals, whether it is a short story, a song or as simple as a letter, my mind seems to freeze and to actively deter inspiration, preventing ideas to form and prosper in what otherwise would be the perfect habitat for them...
tenpo li ante e jan e ma.
tenpo li awen e nasa e tan.
pona li sama pona lon ma ona,
la mi wile e ike li wile ala e pona.
I'm lost in the light
I'm lusting the void
People around me
Are nothing, but noise
I am surrounded
There's nowhere to go
The lack of the bright
Is where I feel home

"No!" The angry student exclaimed, "I told you already! This is it! I refuse to change any of it!" He threw his papers in the air and stormed out of the lecture hall.
"What was that about?" asked the curious bystander, who helped Mark to pick up the angry student's essay.
"Just another art student refusing criticism," he said as he looked at his empty wrist, "do you know what time is it?"
"It's 11:05," she revealed with morbid casualty.
