Hey guys, I just wrote a poem and I wanted to share with you all:

I grab the barrel of your gun and laugh into its mouth

Your words can’t hurt me now, your face can’t bring me down.

I’m stronger now than I was yesterday…you’re to blame

Caught in the corner with my hands in my pocket

You turned me around and spat in my face

Like a nail, you drove me into the ground. Down down down.

I screamed but no one cared

I stuck out my hand but no one grabbed it

Being alone was all I knew.

Suffering, coldness and self-loathing.

I couldn’t breathe under the weight of the world

No one knew how important I was.

No one knew how strong I was.

I let you and the world get me down.

I allowed myself to be defeated.

As I’m laughing at gunpoint…it’s at you

I’m laughing at you for thinking you won.

You can kill me but I’ll keep coming back.

You can’t beat me now.

I’m stronger than you, I’m better than you.

I’ll ****ing eat you for breakfast and vomit on your soul.

I found the key to the cage you locked me in years ago.

Knock knock, who’s there?

THE REST OF MY LIFE!

Thank you. I felt empowered earlier after star gazing for over half an hour with my wife.

Great work, Matt!

Update on the fire: More little towns have been evacuated. This is the worst fire in the state since 1910. For the first time in our history, they are asking for civilian volunteers. There are firefighters from New Zealand and Australia being shipped in too. It's crazy.

Outside, it looks like a thick fog has set in, but it's smoke. I was at the store earlier and I saw quite a few people walking around in the parking lot with surgical masks on.
