The great ones are always ambiguous
Like the ending of the Giver
Me and Ry and the boys
In Louisville singin' the River

Death be not proud
Though you erase my life away
She will find me gone
She will find xie xie

DC for me is black
Basketball, National Gallery of Art
Dali's Last Supper
Marvin's graceful heart

One for Quinlin Jai
As he's lifting weights
Irish, English, Thai
Destiny, not Fate

The Episcopal Church is the pretty one
But I do not step inside
Deer sleeps in the grass
I walk down Franklin Street

Vegetarian hot dogs
Pineapple pizza
Jay's teleportation
The free bus gives me greet

Amber in the post office
Tolkien tattoos
SauRon Desantis
Huey Lewis and the News

Duke kicked me out
I am UNC
Basketball at midnight
It's a tarheel life for me

Writing the words
imprisoning the words

Lettered confinement
—frozen in time

Infamous one
S44
He couldn't pretend nothing couldn't happen. Give up his believes because something was trending. Using to being rejected being cancelled didn't bother him. He was always writing to express himself. Tired of his words being twisted and being excluded for having an opinion wanting to be an individual.
He might have missed out or made mistakes but didn't no compromise his integrity to be accepted. Not everyone will agree or get along because everyone has a different situation or grew up differently. Some have more than others while some have to work to get what they have.
Best advice given was do it yourself no one is going to do it for you. Do your own thing most of all treat others right even if you don't see eye to eye. Give them space you don't know their struggle or what they are going through.
Getting older is exhausting no time for hate or hold onto festering grudges that won't be settled or come to terms dude to stubborn pride and arrogant egos.

What is the age of reality
how many birthdays is that

Peaked hats and streamers wrapping the truth
candles relighting the facts

Wishing for the ultimate void
our consciousness offloaded clean

Clearing the way for the square root of now
—its present regifting the dream

Dead cities
Living souls
Gates keep within
As much as without
