A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”

We danced and we #menaced
All through the night we finished
That intimate gaze we had wished
For until Dawn rose and with it
That early morning regret that can be felt with the beating of alcohol on our breaths.

What seeds you plant today
will need watered tomorrow
Where will your empire
be in 250 years?
Laying back in the meadow
all flower crowns wilt
A foreshadow of aura farming

We were with the #holly
As we made rather jolly
Despite a few recent follies,
The mistletoe had still found
Us, sniffed us like a hound-
Now we devoted to this ground.

The pot is boiling over-
A mother growing #livid
Tense words before cover,
But the images remain vivid
Woven as two scorned lovers
Who remained ever rigid.

The world is chaos.
Sometimes shit is senselessly horrible. However, it’s just as reasonable to assume that sometimes shit is senselessly wonderful.
The bad news is that we mostly can’t control it. The good news is that we mostly can’t be blamed.

Today I give you something that I am horribly allergic to. Gather enough of them in a room and I can't breathe.
