Bradley, your work is always astounding, but I think this is my favorite piece of yours. As V said, I can really feel your essence in this one. The message shines through, the one you've been communicating to me and to all of us. Thank you for your art, your friendship, and your support and encouragement. It truly means the world. <3

When an artist creates, it becomes part of the aether. The price paid is offered up mind, body, and soul to nourish that ever spinning serpent wrapped around the world and biting its own tail.

This poem has such beautiful imagery. And I can really see your spirit in this, Bradley. This poem is about creativity, your words. But for me, I also see you, a person who is the friend of many and uplifts them, especially with the last words. You truly are a generous person and spread kindness to other creatives and uplift them.

Thank you, V! I never saw myself in this until you mentioned that just now, but you’re right. I do try to be present and supportive for my fellow writers. So, in that way I am quite similar to this entity.

I appreciate you, and the kind words. ❤️

🫶 of course Bradley. You deserve recognition too. You are great friend and make others feel great, but you deserve that too. You cannot feel from an empty cup. I speak for many when I say thank you, we appreciate you. Take care of yourself, go to bed fore 5am 👀 and drink some water, okay friend?
