Frail bird And Me. Content Warning.
“Her frail bird." Lost to the free sky. "My bird." Flightless feathers upon the flooded ground. "Frail bird." Hidden quivers in the wind. My bird. Confine by the mass of time. Frail bird. She sings to the night. Whispers of saudade.

Un-triumphed Mirror. Content Warning.
"I am but one in a world of many vast figures peering below. I have but one intent, I have staked my life to reach, I want to see peace before me. To create a nation I will paint a picture. I will paint imagery of the living. Written behind the bind of stereotype. I stay on stage amongst a debt of monstrous weight. The dead in each memory, I am surrounded by the shadow my heart cast. I thus I shall be captured unto memory. In the images will manifest what the people believe they need. I too shall bear their desires in mind as my own. I am aware that mere desire is not sufficient enough. Peace is not a dream but shall be reality. I am just a dream too far away to be seen in your reflections. Like a dream, forget your hopes bound to my masterpiece. In accordance, I will proceed as if I were but a fantasy."

Aren't We Smart, Or Aren't We Smart?
There is no such thing as a standard man, only a conditioned one. If you change the conditions of any single man, that individual would no longer be the same man. People do not change, experience changes. It is simple. Perception is what decides the narrative. The narrative that shapes an individual's conditions. And words, what decides perception. It is a man's word that reigns his condition and by extension standard.
