take care with your neck and your spine.

The world's divided into two segments: wolves and sheep. "They" say that it's wiser to surround yourself with sheep regardless of which one you are, because even a wolf among sheep is safe by virtue of manipulation. I used to think you were a sheep, but soon learned you were a wolf in hiding. As an disguised wolf, I admired it, despite how often it leads to my agony. I've tried stability and chaos, caution and recklessness, seclusion and exposure. I've tried it all in an attempt to develop a formula for assimilating into this scene. I assumed I'd either step on toes or wash out into the background, but I've come to the conclusion that the proverbial "they" is wrong once again. I've always known I was a wolf, and lately I've come to realize that it does a wolf, at least a true one, no good to be amidst sheep. We gain nothing from taking advantage of the vulnerable - in order to obtain any sense of accomplishment we must conquer the conquerors. Does that sound contrived? I don't know, but it's only when we're confronted with a threat on our comfort do we take the initiative to rise to the occasion and jump the hurdle. So, throw yourself to the wolves. Be consumed with the ambition to go further, but never lose sight of where you've been. Let the devil in.

because we are all just lovers born of earth and light like all these others.
