Mass shootings and 
Misogyny are food for 
The insecure mind. 

Energy served to those unable 
To achieve the level of greatness 
They are told they deserve; 
By truth, false promise, or lie. 

WARNING: 
Their cup is not half full, 
Nor empty.  It is bottomless;  
What falls in, 
Goes straight to hell. <\/pre>\n\n

The site is locally known as the Door to Hell. The 69-metre-wide crater has been burning natural gas since 1971 when Soviet petroleum engineers, concerned about contaminating the air after an excavating accident, tried to burn off the remaining gas by lighting it. The picture doesn\u2019t show any of this, though. The scale of time and space remain a puzzle in the image, pointing to the difficulty of perceiving the scope of human impact on the planet.\u2019\u00a0<\/em>Buy this print<\/em><\/a>. ” <\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
