Don’t Fit, Just Be a. klesath

I only know what it’s like to be me. I could never claim to know what it’s like to be you. I can have empathy for you, but I can’t see through your eyes or feel what you feel. All  I know comes from my perception of my experiences.  I have felt excluded sometimes directly…

Crazy, Messed Up World by A. Klesath

Truth Doesn’t Lie By A. Klesath

Money is the ultimate demise of human civilization, however you spin it, it will always be the truth. We are slaves to money, so blinded by it, we can’t seem to see any way out. Wars are fought, people are murdered, and the powerful hold all the cards merely by holding all the money. They…

Puppets and Fears by A. Klesath

Chaos through Fear Power through Manipulation It all begins on one station. Through a material clan destination and some strange manifestation.

The World Needs . . . By A. Klesath

The world needs kindness, compassion and love. We say we are kind, but only to those who believe what we believe or have something we need. We say we have compassion, but only for those who we believe are worthy. We love those who give us what we believe we need. We don’t understand kindness…
