Transform that treacherous terrain

Rip the scrolls apart, reduce and dilute the uncomfortable sections of their culture

Accuracy is the aim, that is, acute categorization. Deconstruct! Distort! Can the context!

No need to speak, subject. This may be your

Story, but it is mine to tell

Losers weepers

Assimilators keepers

Tear Their language to threads that We will weave in our image, our interest

Every one of Us victorious, every one of Them vilified!

About the Creator

Wen Xiaosheng

I'm a mad scientist - I mean, film critic and aspiring author who enjoys experimenting with multiple genres. If a vial of villains, a pinch of psychology, and a sprinkle of social commentary sound like your cup of tea, give me a shot.
