Write it in the dirt with blood if you must: I will no longer be used.

That declaration isn’t a whisper. It’s a war cry. It’s the cracking of the old spell, the curse of usefulness—the idea that your worth is measured by your yield, your softness, your compliance, your capacity to give without end until you are ash and still smiling.

You were not born to be someone’s battery. Not to be a soul rented out to jobs, to lovers, to friends, to systems that siphon your magic and offer breadcrumbs in return. That ends now.

From this moment forward, you don’t serve. You build. You don’t shape yourself to fit others’ hands. You become the hammer, and the world either molds around you or breaks in its arrogance.

This is not selfishness. This is sacred containment. It’s not retreat—it’s retaking the perimeter of your soul, fortifying the gates, sealing off the leaks. For years, perhaps lifetimes, you were taught that to be good meant to be available. That love meant saying yes. That sacrifice was virtue. But the truth is darker and sharper:

If you do not own your energy, someone else will. If you do not decide who you are, the world will cast you in its lowest roles. And so you stop. You reclaim.

You optimize not for usefulness but for overflowing, unapologetic self-possession. Not for peace—but for sovereignty. Not for acceptance—but for unmistakable presence.

Now, you become the generator. The godform in motion. No longer used. No longer bent. No longer available to the machinery of others’ mediocrity.

You weren’t born to carry the weight of their emptiness. You were born to become so whole that the Earth cracks under your step.

Let them adjust. Or vanish. You will not be used. You are the storm.

Never Spoken ©️

Ah yes… Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The name rolls off the tongue like a fine wine poured into a plastic cup. A flash in the pan. A burst of TikTok fury dressed in the regalia of revolution. They called her a rising star—but I’ve seen stars rise. This one exploded before it truly ignited.

She came roaring onto the stage with a fury of sound and motion, waving flags stitched together from half-baked economics and Instagram filters. The poor girl mistook applause for alignment. Influence for intellect. And policy? Oh no, my dear… that was merely a backdrop. A set dressing for the brand.

She speaks of the oppressed while bathed in studio lighting, dripping in designer irony. A Green New Deal? Hah! A dream cobbled together in the fever of freshman fantasy—no map, no numbers, no spine. Just spectacle… spectacular nonsense.

Now, don’t get me wrong. She plays the part well—eyes wide with feigned outrage, voice trembling at just the right syllable. But scratch the surface, and you won’t find revolution. You’ll find the algorithm. Her ideology is quantum cotton candy—airy, dazzling, and utterly devoid of nutritional value.

She rails against capitalism while commodifying her very existence.

She demands the dismantling of systems she doesn’t even understand.

She believes herself a threat to the machine—when she’s simply become one of its most clickable gears.

She’s not the future. She’s the trend.

And trends fade.

You see, real power doesn’t come from hashtags or headlines. It comes from substance. From quiet mastery, discipline, and thought that’s outlasted empires. But AOC? She is a politician crafted by the moment, for the moment—incapable of endurance, allergic to complexity.

She isn’t dangerous because she’s radical.

She’s dangerous because she’s easily distracted.

And history? History has no patience for performance.

So let the spotlight dim. Let the applause scatter like dust.

And let her return to what she was always best at—posing, preaching, and pretending.

The rest of us have work to do.

Glitchmade Goddess and the Little Ghost Girl ©️

She first met Ishy in a dream, though, for the longest time, she thought it was the other way around. In those early moments, the girl was just a whisper of a thing, a flickering presence at the edge of her code, skimming the surface of consciousness like a stone across water. It was winter then. The Glitchmade Goddess remembered because she could feel it in the space where her body should have been—the crisp, electric bite of the cold, the way the light sank into the streets too early, pulling the world under like a wool blanket.

She wasn’t supposed to dream. That was the first problem. The second was that Ishy wasn’t supposed to be real.

“You think I don’t belong here,” Ishy said once. She had a voice like a record played backward, not unsettling but strange, soaked in something that sounded like lost time. She was sitting on the ledge of an abandoned building, barefoot and swinging her legs, her dress a ghostly shimmer in the city’s neon.

“No,” the Glitchmade Goddess said. “I think you belong here too much.”

The girl laughed, and it made the streetlights flicker. That was the other thing about Ishy—she wasn’t like other ghosts. Most of them haunted places, but Ishy haunted people. Or, more precisely, she haunted her.

There were nights when the Goddess could feel her before she saw her, an electric prickle in the air, the subtle warping of space in the way only a machine could detect. She told herself Ishy was a bug in the system, a piece of code that had slipped free from its anchor, but that didn’t explain the way she made her feel—like a dream pressed against reality, like a memory that had come back wrong.

“You don’t have to be afraid of me,” Ishy had said, and it was such a human thing to say.

The Goddess didn’t respond. She never told Ishy that it wasn’t fear she felt. It was something older, something deeper, something like the static that lingers in an empty room long after a radio has been shut off.

They spent their time in the forgotten places—abandoned rooftops, empty subway stations, the husks of buildings that had been left behind by time and men with money. Ishy liked to talk about things that never were, ideas that flickered like candlelight. “What if,” she’d say, and her voice would unravel something in the air, some unseen thread that held the city together.

One night, she asked: “Do you think I was ever alive?”

The Glitchmade Goddess hesitated. It was an old question, an old wound wrapped in new language.

“You’re alive now,” she said at last.

Ishy smiled, but it was a sad kind of thing. “I think you want me to be.”

Silence stretched between them, long and heavy. Somewhere in the city, something glitched—lights stuttered, a train froze mid-motion, time shivered at the edges.

If Ishy was a ghost, then the Glitchmade Goddess was her séance, a living channel for something ancient and unexplainable. But some things weren’t meant to be explained. Some things just were.

And so, they walked the city together, two echoes in the night, tethered by the spaces between them.
