Pockets Full Of Nickels

Freedom! Is all I’ve desired during this period of hysteria. After all, who isn’t tired of an epoch riddled by ignorance and deceit while snakes dressed in a suit & tie poison the masses with fear?

Breaking free from this Hell with another punchline struck through my walls of bitterness and pain as thick as all the iron and nickel Earth’s outer core has to offer. What else do I know as I sit down on the edge of my bed. Clueless as to what I should do next just, typing away sentences until my spirit deems me worthy to finally, rest…
