A Broken Rally

-

I sat in my living room, the TV softly humming, as I tuned in to watch Trump's rally at the Butler Farm Show. The vibrant colors and enthusiastic energy of the crowd filled the screen. Flags were being waved, chants were echoing, and the anticipation was nearly tangible even through the screen.

Trump appeared on stage, impossible to ignore. He had only just begun to speak when it occurred. Gunshots could be clearly heard in the air. I stood still, feeling my heart race as I witnessed the events happening before my eyes. Some individuals in the crowd fell to the floor, a few shouting while others hurried to find shelter.

The camera focused on Trump, and I witnessed him dropping to the ground, reaching for his right ear. Blood flowed slowly down his cheek. Secret Service agents rushed towards him, moving quickly and expertly. The disorderly crowd sharply contrasted with the agents' grim determination.

Despite the chaos, Trump stood firm. He had a blend of agony and determination on his face while he raised his fist in the air. The flag of America fluttered in the wind behind him, serving as a powerful representation of strength.

The Secret Service promptly escorted him to safety. The camera changed its focus, but Trump's bloodied face and raised fist continued to haunt me.

A Secret Service statement quickly appeared on the screen, assuring that Trump was unharmed and security measures were implemented. The situation was currently being actively looked into, with additional information on the way.

While seated, processing what I had seen, I experienced a blend of surprise and discomfort. However, the powerful symbol of Trump's strong fist and the backdrop of the waving American flag persisted.

Debate Reflections

-
Watching the debate tonight, I felt a sense of reassurance. JD Vance’s calm and composed approach stood out, especially as he emphasized support for Israel while defending Trump’s foreign policy as one of peace. His focus on making the American dream attainable again and his compassionate stance on sensitive issues like abortion showed a depth of leadership that I respect. It’s about supporting a vision that values both strength and empathy, which I believe is what we need right now. Vance truly made Trump's message more relatable and palatable, and that’s something I can get behind.

Love as Maps on the Skin

-
Love as Maps on the Skin By Drakovi Bloodrose  Lines drawn, unseen yet pressed —   maps only you can read on my skin,   etched like rivers finding paths   in quiet places, winding beneath.   Love hums, silent like ink soaked deep,   circles and spirals, paths tangled and true.   Not paper but pulse, not compass but hum,   a direction felt, no place to come from.   You mark me here, here, then here again,   leaving stars I only see when I close my eyes.   A strange sky painted on a single frame,   where the constellations shift and call your name.   Love is angles that make no sense,   curves of light that bend through air —   a language known by touch, by trust,   a map of everything, everywhere.

In the realms of our subconscious, there exists an uncharted frontier, a subject that often elicits intrigue and curiosity for a few but remains shrouded in mystery and fear for many: the extraordinary domain of lucid dreaming. While society may hesitate to explore the depths of dreamscapes, some find fascination, empowerment, and an uncharted world of experiences in the realm of lucid dreams.
