About me: I am Alaric at your gates. As I watch my people starve, the children sold into slavery for dogmeat, I keep my eyes locked on the gates of your Great City. No one is hungrier than I am. No people are more worthy than mine. We will see you soon inside the gates of your Great City.

People like you always gather the interesing ones. A polite way of saying a glance and a pass. Have you ever thought about how stupid we all are? I mean, take for example your last night theory about one or the other: This in the face of a thousand wealthy creative people. When excuses feel like reasons, that is the time to tell yourself to fuck off. But bravo on including my favorite poem. Can you guess which one?
