The deepest hole Humanity has ever dug is deeper than Mount Everest is tall, yet it's still just 0.002% of the way to the middle of the Earth. No room for boredom because there's a lot more to discover, and I LOVE DIGGING.

Behold the ones for whom every day is Halloween. See beyond their masks. They lie and cheat; agents of rage and ruin. I used to be afraid. But no more. No. I walk among them unperturbed for now I know: Even if they win, it's just a hollow win.

I used to think life was beautiful. I was wrong. Life is much more than beautiful. I'm no longer scared. I love breathing even if I have to wear a CBRN mask now. I'm not dazed. I am dazzled.

It's raining cats and pouring dogs The cats of chaos, dogs of doom It's pelting rats and hailing frogs The rats of ruin, frogs of gloom Yet Let it rain and let it pour We're made of undying hope Winter's whips we will endure We love Home—our Sweet Home https://t.co/A9qEQ1ri3l

The final battle's on its way The sandglass chokes its last grain Hearts undone, we kneel and pray, Who will survive the metal rain? But Hand in hand, we'll face the beast Daring the night's cruel regime And bleed our way to freedom's feast No despair—Hope reigns supreme

Everyone dies, sooner or later, It's just the memories that count Ours were marred by a dictator: Evil incarnate, the fool paramount Don't go up the hill on your own Let me push the boulder with you Take my hand; we were born alone We are not going to die alone too.

The sandglass rains above my head The stench of the burn fills the air Showering in drops of the dread — The liberating caress of despair Whatever doesn't heal destroys Don't die, love — let us reminisce The frantic ticktock no longer annoys You remember our very first kiss?

Silly me! I seal my blasphemous lips, God has nothing to repent. Silly me! How could I expect them to love everything? The callous kin and the savage strangers. Silly me! Isn't it enough that They get together and sing a sad song? Home Sweet Home https://t.co/QJS85b5MFE

Ever since they realized they could make things, they've been making Everything: Bigger, chicer, better Ever since they realized they could break things, they've been breaking Everything: Faster, louder, farther What about love? Don't they know they can love Everything?

Mourn the loved ones Look out to sea Seek no refuge from bombs —There won't be any A divine intervention Fanning the wretched flame Intervening to sow contention Does Universe feel shame? A crumbling tower A burning orchard What an intoxicating scent! — Will God ever repent?

The game of life was Texas hold 'em, Dealt seven-deuce — had to fold 'em Grab cotton candy and some Cracker Jacks, As we brace ourselves for aerial acts You, the living, lying in your lilac beds, Come, take a look at the walking dead. https://t.co/DNyBmIFUG7

A tower of torture draped in deceit A petty porcher crowned in conceit No more Roses are caged. Cacti freely roam In the biggest Big Top under the dome No more The only tune: Melody of the Drone Horizons harrowed in red-tinted foam Home sweet home Allure of the bomb . . .

Is death blessing in disguise For those pissing away lives In towers built on gilded lies? They stacked their hate up floor by floor Arrogance mortar, greed the stone Promised heaven, brought endless war The broken tower stands forlorn The last days are nigh —Get ready to fly

Remember, love? We were going to Fall through Winter Hopscotch into Spring of sizzling Summer We rushed to the top of The tower of Hope, Promised wings Of transcendence awaiting us, We craved elation And endless bliss How did it all come to this? This is the last kiss.

I am many things but not a bore Won't tell you Let's kiss as if there's no tomorrow Metal vultures Trembling walls Restless nights, The air is powder-pregnant, love My words will forever echo I will tell you Let's kiss. There's no tomorrow Home sweet home The last kiss, love

Stepping down dizzy stairs of fate Can't let go, we embrace so tight Eyes misty, I trudge toward the gate Heavy heart, how I loathe tonight As dread penetrates every breath I'll whisper your euphonious name Armor adorned with chinks of death Restless nights return once again

We fervently kiss one more time Not a noose but her gentle arms coil My neck assuring me we'll be fine As we're swept through in eternal toil We followed love's sacred behest But shutters opened to let in pain And cruel destiny denied us rest Soon the walls will tremble again

She kisses me soft, her touch's tender You worry so much, let's make love In her pleading eyes flutters a dove Come hell or high water, no surrender Guns or roses? asks me again She knows the answer well, but, This time I can't smile, eyes shut Soon metal vultures'll fly again

Love my orchard, don't blame me Know what's coming, I won't flee Want to feel freedom's gleam With my last breath, I'll dream O, my Beauty, O, my Bride! What have they done to you What have they done O, my Promise, O, my Pride! What have they done to you What have they done

I had a delightful dream last night! I took off my dirty tattered clothes Stark naked, my body clean, white Whispering one word head to toes Freedom My ears, my eyes, my heart Please don't fail me. Please Soon, the aerial acts'll start Let us all pray. Let's all seize Freedom

On our way We hear Weeping willows wailing Under chainsaws' cruel cackling We see A thirsty lake parched to dust Under clowns' careful callousness We smell A lush orchard burning in shame Under cacti's crippling commission But we never give up We never stop shouting Freedom
