Do not fear death, remember you do not show fear.

I write down my transformation on flesh, it tells the story of life.

Sacrificed the old me, cut it off with an axe.

Do not wait for the shell to crack.

Run your hands over your chest and feel for any holes.

Reach inside yourself, grab that thing growing inside you, and set it free.

Don’t pay attention to time, in a world where time is money, don’t let your attention be bought.

I am listening to the trees and birds.
