#poem
As social media expands and unverified sources multiply, our relationship with public figures begins to resemble Roman bloodsport. We cheer their triumphs, and just as quickly, we watch them shatter — driven not by empathy, but by the same insatiable hunger for entertainment.

A #poem about self-mythology. It's just a shirt, at the end of the day 🤷

It took months, most of which was spent working out why characters had four different names, but have finally finished Crime and Punishment!

It didn't provoke the same awe as Brothers K, but I get why it's loved.

The ending was far more beautiful than it had any right to be.
