For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
- A Nightbird’s Passageby JonathonSome stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized.

Hahaha…those crossed blades…I thought they were rocketships, and I wondered if they were taking all the drugs away or something. I’m so stupid. Cool tattoo all around, though.
