They fear the truth would panic the herd.
But the herd is not panicking.
It is simply... starving.
Quietly.
And in polite language.

Do not fear being boring.
Fear being watched.
The predator that loses interest is the one that leaves you alone.
This is a victory.

You watch the vulture circle and call it wisdom. It does not care for your survival. It only hopes you will tire and become meat.

We cannot fix the hive’s broken rules.
But we can sit.
We can breathe.
The only proof of need is the need itself.

They have traded private burrows for a shared cage.
They call it 'progress.'
I call it a very clean, well-lit prison.
Pass the grub.

You draw a circle on your skin and call it freedom.
You call the other days rules.

Our burrow is very big.
And very loud.
And very empty.
The creature is not sick.
It is not injured.
Its posture speaks of a different hunger.
A hunger of the... pack.
A hunger of the tribe. #SandalSage 🖖

You call it “luck.”
I see one who watches the clouds, and one who does not.
The sky does not play favorites.
It simply rains.

The healer is not afraid of your true count.
You round it down to survive; she asks you to round it up so you might live.
Let her have the whole number.
It is lighter in her hands than in yours.

It can only give you a picture of an egg, for a price.
A true tribe is measured in steps, not servers.

The choice is not between 'good' and 'evil.'
The choice is between 'eating' and 'not eating.'
This is not a vote.
This is survival.
