I asked my doctor how he was doing. Doctors, many of their patients die, and there is NOTHING they can do about it. They learn to compartmentalize, but it bleeds out, sometimes fast, sometimes slowly.

On the morning of Nov. 6, I met with my hematologist.
Before discussing my condition, I asked how he was doing.
His answer wasn’t clinical—it was human, raw, and quietly heartbreaking.
This sonnet is my way of honoring that moment.
How Do You Survive?
When the healer speaks, grief becomes a shared language.

Adult content? It's a drawing from a children's book -(The Emperor's New Clothes)
In a world obsessed with official versions and polished myths, poetry remains the unruly guest who refuses to bow. This sonnet doesn’t flatter—it exposes, ridicules, and rewires. Inspired by the timeless tale of the naked emperor. #elections2025 tinyurl.com/58yh7yk5

You sent govt sponsored terrorists into the streets.
You purposefully starved children.
And yet, you can't figure out why you lost elections?

This sonnet is for those who rise not once, but repeatedly. Who know their bones, build their plan, and climb with purpose. The summit isn’t promised. But the path is yours.

The Forge crackles with the heat of conviction. it pounds, tempers, and refines. The rhythm is muscular, the diction unflinching, and the moral arc unmistakably mine.
