Your words have a way of slicing below the surface, to the core. The last two lines remind me of the lyrics, “ it’s better to burn out than it is to rust”. Keep shining, my friend.

I sincerely hope to meet you on the other side!

thank you graciously dearest Gus for feeling me so deeply it’s appreciated 💕

If they are keeping score like that, you would never break even. Nice piece

This is such an accurate telling. That quid pro quo system is so disappointing. And such a human trait, it seems

Reminds me of the taxman. lol

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Sounds like capitalism to me, and the force-fed propaganda woven into our heads on a daily basis. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

I have known these people my friend. You write this very well, with insight into their character.
