Tick, tick, tick

And commentary on the word count.

Every fiber of your being. We could never come back from that. People pay with their blood, their pain, their morals, and their souls to preserve your perversions to humanity, and you bask? As the sun does, the shade equally covers the light. Tick, tick, tick.

A hundred words? That seems like a demand that usually precedes payment. How am I held accountable as I can say in 10 words what most couldn’t in a thousand. What the requirement does is force augmentation of an artists voice. If Nirvana and Elliott Smith were told their 2-3 minute songs were too short we would’ve all suffered.

About the Creator

I'd love to but, all my writing would be augmented to a persona in a way manipulated by my bio. If I say I am a saint, you'll either believe me or think the opposite. How bout you use your mind and decide who I am, then tell me.
