a poem by Æ et al.

Speaker: 00:00:29

i know i just disengaged in the throes of conversation but it's for your own good you see,

Speaker: 00:00:35

there's two dragons inside me.

Speaker: 00:00:38

one loves to fight the other hates you, i don't know why, you've never met her, an acid-spitting viper, so if it seems like i'm ignoring you, instead i’m keeping these monsters from snapping off your head so please stop poking them

Speaker: 00:00:41

with a stick,

Speaker: 00:00:53

stop trying to trick me back into the argument these two might be happy to burn through your patience

Speaker: 00:00:59

but i must live with the consequence
