We are violent:
Broken homes, broken limbs, broken into splinters that slipped into the shadows, hidden. We are from nothing, but stole from everything, words like serpents that convince and coerce; even the most in faith. Shoving spikes through the wrists, twisting like a pythons grip. Weary it is, describe the color of blood for I can tell you its very scent;
We are violent:
Shifters of shapes, shifters of words, shifters of plans - sinking thoughts into the very embryo you held as busker of religion. We take the form of your loved; we can shift time and thought, for now we are and then we’re naught. Shifting through and breaking centers, epidemic-cataclysm burrowing further into your lament;
We are violent:
Take your thoughts, take your words, take your very core for now this is how we deserve for telling truths. You are falsehood we are saint, but it isn’t your blood we drink. It is those you think are that is loved. Count the number for the number is real, but we are cold as steel. Breath quick for it comes quick, speak just and make it swift. Let us take you to the light, think us now as the: heaven sent.
We are violent.
I take token, reading through the pages: wouldn’t it be so much more real to feel papyrus beginning to crumble and die in the molecular acids in my hands. Trust aestheticism to view from a sandy scroll that looked like tea had befallen it only ages ago. Calligraphy from quill and ink, serpents’ tidal tongue tailed into looping liaisons of mystery and mirth that only assailed the alphabet into a proxy of filtered thoughts – this is what we search. We come here for the birth of brilliance and brash.
This is our art, so never take a breath and never blink. For you may miss what I now think. Take my hand if you are brave; let us take this to the escalade. You need little of educated talent, just that of inherent astral performance, to imbalance the center and focus the peripherals.

- Description: I wrote this actually to recruit people who wrote aggressive prose that delved into the mind of an every day man or woman (usually from a non-rural part of America). It is based on a very light tone of what Easton brings with his novels. It was a failed idea and I was left perpetually alone. This is about society and how everyone has aggression and the best aggression is through prose.

- Good writing, and I like the style, but it is too cynical to get five stars. What is your purpose?

- A couple confusing lines--> "It is those you think are that is loved." (wasn't sure what that says lol) But overall very powerful. It had a very distinct, powerful voice that I could hear throughout the entire piece. Very strong and almost lovely in it's varacity.
