“On Social Media people always seem to appear and then disappear. Befriend you as a writer perhaps because they think that you can just help them reach their goals or just maybe because they've heard of you. On some? Like on Instagram? Follow you and then unfollow you in their own shallow pathetic pursuit of looking popular. Not giving two shits about you or have any real interest in your actual work. Once upon a time that used to really bother me because they obviously lack authenticity & any manners. But after thirty some years of writing & publishing and creating and actually earning all of the merits and being myself, being true to the words and all the poetry that is the only real thing that truly matters? I simply say to all of them. Fuck you. I'm R.M. Engelhardt And if you haven't heard of me or read any of my work then obviously you don't really know much about poetry”

“In a giddy tone I announced, “Operation Demon Days, Hexy Knights. Knight with a ‘K’.” Someone groaned. Matthias grimaced. “Absolutely not. It’s ridiculous.” “It’s perfect!” Blake picked me up for a quick twirl around. “I’m a Hexy Knight. I love having her in the group.” “No,” Matthias said. “She’s not—we’re not keeping her.” What am I, a stray?” Jayden shook his head. “‘Hexy’ isn’t even a word.” Tristan frowned. “It makes us sound like wizards casting spells.” “No, dude. It makes us sound sexy.” “It makes us sound stupid,” Matthias said. As Blake settled me back on the checkered blanket, I huffed, “Well, thank you Professor of the Dark Arts.” “Aren’t you the clever sheila. Really dug deep for that one.”

“Οι δικοί μου άνθρωποι ξέρουν και να φροντίζουν μα και να πολεμούν. Κουβαλούν μέσα τους και σκληρότητα και τρυφερότητα, τους εκμεταλλεύονται και τους παραπετάνε, τους απορρίπτουν σαν απολίτιστα στουρνάρια και σαν κατακάθια που παρασιτούν με επιδόματα∙ κάνουν τους καλούς φιλελεύθερους πολίτες να απομακρύνονται αηδιασμένοι και αποτελούν τα κατεξοχήν εξεγερμένα υποκείμενα της νεοφιλελεύθερης κοινωνίας. Έτσι και κάποιος πλήγωνε αυτούς που αγαπάνε, θα έτρωγε ροπαλιά στο κεφάλι απ’ τον καθέναν απ’ αυτούς.”
