“Mobile apps and phone games are fast becoming known as the, SSS, of life. Sex! Sales! Slavery! They don't care about the impact of their apps or games. They just care about their bottom lines. Users are bombarded with sexy and scantily clad characters on an hourly basis. In game or app costs are going through the roof and are also hard to stop unless you pay money. (another form of blackmail) Slavery becomes people, both young and old, are becoming entrapped by the apps and games. It becomes an addiction and a way of life just like drugs and alcohol.

"Swing punch" you said. and the wound starts to open Not satisfied with your annoyance, then a scream extends on the edge of the moon Your lower lip is bitten, your eyes are narrowed You are my girl I will make you understand that "Once more" you said, then I stab the walls of your vulnerable trough so deep. And deep, as deep as you sink. "Have you come out yet"? "Not yet." You said. While the voice creeps on the top of the dream "Almost" you said, then find your lost wish Then all the door kisses to your forehead I came out limp from the sea of drowning dreams and shadows. Almost died before the hug lifted in the morning”

Standing there in that moment, I felt like I'd stumbled upon something sacred, more intimate even than what had passed between us in the house. Like Gus had pulled back the curtains in the window of a house I'd been admiring, whose insides I'd been dreaming about but even so, underestimated. I liked seeing Gus like this, with the people he knew would always love him. We'd just had sex like the world was burning down around us, but if I ever got to kiss Gus again, I wanted it to be this version of him. The one who didn't feel so weighed down by the world around him that he had to lean just to stay upright.”
