I, Nhes Nbeow,
hereby swear to
abandon all fear;
to question everything;
to trust in myself;
to honor those before me
as I excel,
and to support those
who follow as they ascend.
I swear that
I will never accept
another's standard for success,
as I set mine one measure higher.
When I am finished,
no one will ever fucking look at
afiomsode the same way again.
