"Wanting to meet a writer because you like their books is like wanting to meet a duck because you like pâté.” — Margaret Atwood via @ianduhig.bsky.social
Spectral Nights in West Virginia.
"The Ruin
Remorseless sun · stunts the dew
Glistening towers · of tainted glass
ignite and blister · in blood-yellow light
recalling the tallest · of crumbling tombs
as humbler graves · harbor their dead
in the clutches of earth · and callous night
The past is draining · through inhuman dreams
no people are packing · backrooms and bars
no pride or empire · rises on ruins
no glance at a face · gleans what is fair
Everyone senses · evil has come
The world we knew · will not be renewed
and gods of technology · are graceless and numb
We call for a hero · but just hear recordings "

In the animal kingdom it's known as threat display..
One day we will realize that all the robots are kidding, too. You don't have to be carbon based to have imposter syndrome.
