Riding on a speeding train; trapped inside a revolving door;
Lost in the riddle of a quatrain; Stuck in an elevator between floors.
One focal point in a random world can change your direction:
One step where events converge may alter your perception.

They have finally found an avenue to fully showcase their intellectual brilliance and an audience to match.

Ballard has two tweets, and one of them is this one:
Russel wins the current Hardliner Index Award with a '50% punitive' rating!
I also looked at Monson's 8 'follows', hoping to see someone like Neil deGrasse Tyson in that short list, but alas, no joy.

Sisters, while your input is significant and welcome in effective councils, you need to be careful not to assume a role that is not yours.
