You Think I Am Broken
A Poetic Statement In A Villanelle On My Situation On Vocal, Inspired By A Work By Bouke de Vries And A Song By The Screaming Trees
Introduction
This is inspired by my situation on Vocal, the Bouke de Vries work and the Screaming Trees song. I know that for many others, they would have walked away from Vocal, but I am taking it as a challenge. I get the feeling that Vocal moderators and others don't want me here (just my imposter syndrome paranoia), but I know a lot of people do, and obviously, some on Vocal do value me, so I will not be giving up.
The music is "Sworn And Broken" by The Screaming Trees
