100 yrs ago, in the #Bronx...
I think what I’m trying to say is:
How do you preserve yourself
in a world in which life
doesn’t really mean much anymore?

When we are born
we can embark on only
1️⃣ of 3️⃣ roads of life:
If you go ➡️
the 🐺 will eat you
If you go ⬅️
you’ll eat the 🐺
If you go straight
you’ll eat yourself.
