So, I've decided to talk in pen, because pens are smoother. Pencils scratch, pens slide like honey out of your spoon in to a cup of tea. A pen does not stumble, a pen does not falter, no, a pen makes a bold mark on a blank piece of paper. It stands out. A pen is shouting loud into the sky, "I am here, I am permanent, I am not to be taken lightly, I matter." A pen can make mistakes, but they are ********* hard to erase. Because, you know what? A mistake is part of a pen's path, and what it has written before matters just as much as what it writes next. I have decided to write in pen, because my voice is never going to be erased.
