Reinforcements
Was it you Goddess who
Advocated on my behalf?
Do you keep vigil over your
Namesakes’ hearts’ desires?
Thank you for leveraging
On my behalf for the one
I had championed above all else
Despite Trixter’s rigged outcome
May I request boon for another?
Please protect my chosen lover
Goddess Divine
“Ever has she cared for humanity, focusing upon nourishment and strategy.”
A Kind Of Madness
“That Man could think killing off portions of its own species to be acceptable.”
An Argument For Living: Look To Windward Excerpts By Iain M. Banks
The point is: what happens in heaven?’
‘Unknowable wonderfulness?’
‘Nonsense. The answer is nothing. Nothing can happen because if something happens, in fact if something can happen, then it doesn’t represent eternity. Our lives are about development, mutation and the possibility of change; that is almost a definition of what life is: change.’
‘If you disable change, if you effectively stop time, if you prevent the possibility of the alteration of an individual’s circumstances – and that must include at least the possibility that they alter for the worse – then you don’t have life after death; you just have death.
Iain M. Banks, Look to Windward (Culture, #7)

(Closer – Kaskade)
Provider
“I am the matriarch for my lineage.”
Self Skew
“I have no idea how to get out from under the weight of self categoruzing when I am struggling to overcome so much and look haggard.
I’m not 40, back when I just reached a new prime – yet everything got dumped onto its head.
Since then, I’ve been in some version of a constant battle in a war that never seems to end.”

The Ex-Pat
“An ex had recently reconnected, picking up where he had left off – as if time and growth made up for damages and losses.
Although she still cared for and wanted the best for him, she knew firsthand that his values were his priority.
Knowing that she would always be low-ranking when it came to society, she abdicated their continuing.”
(Do You Like That – Sleep Token)
Scaling Heights
“No small undertaking.”
Acceptance

Ever go”

Locked Key
It is said that some things
Are better left unexplored
But some things gain strength
If left untended and suppressed
Subconscious
Something has over-extended
And it feels like I’m shrieking
Along the back inside my skin
As if fragile sanity’s cracking
That’s not a monkey riding
But an untamed demon!
