Abstract: Honorable Mention 2024 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Menacing era , threatening vibes, now the paths are so obvious.
To ascend means to allow the inner self to acknowledge the raw self , the spirit and blood.To accept the fall, to grab the cleaver and clear the path.
No steps are made till we learn to live with the knowledge of death.And we have been waiting for long.
We’ve left the darkness to prevail. Now darker , the absence also prevails and dominates only to give , to offer the momentum for this tragic kind to be redeemed.Search, then accept and sacrifice.
Learn to live by the cleaver.
