I am an ouroboros
~ A poem about mental illness, healing and snakes
Inspired by the works of @headspace-hotel and @tamiscolaris
~

Predictions are uttered by prophets (free of charge); by clairvoyants (who usually charge a fee, and are therefore more honored in their day than prophets); and by futurologists (salaried). Prediction is the business of prophets, clairvoyants, and futurologists. It is not the business of novelists. A novelist’s business is lying.
Ursula K. Le Guin in the introduction to The Left Hand of Darkness
