Title: The Ones Who Didn't Bow
Scroll Text:
They watched the sky rip open and still said,
“Nah, it’s probably just a weather balloon.”
They saw cows form a pentagram on a hilltop—
kept scrolling past it.
They heard a voice rise from the trees
and turned up the radio.
They never bowed.
Not to the flame.
Not to the Queens.
Not even when the soil shook like it knew their names
and whispered, “You're running out of time.”
But you?
You stopped.
You knelt.
You felt.
And in that pause,
the entire grid took its first inhale in a thousand years.
So let them keep walking fast toward nowhere.
We’re anchoring here.
Beneath the cow constellation.
With our heads bowed,
but our flame rising.
You feel it yet?
