The thing that angers me

About the submas fandom,

Is how a man breaks down

At the lost of another

His twin brother in black.

Because, of course two brothers

Equal one man and not

Two twins equal two men

I am angry at submas

For determining that a worth

Is dependant on another person

And not your own self.

"I am Emmet," he introduces

Not "I am a twin,"

Not "I am Ingo's half,"

Not "I am actually Emmingo,"

Just repeats "I am Emmet".

Loss is hard, he'll know

And grief clings to you

Like vines, and wither slowly

They will remain with sorrow,

But bring in fond memories

Of a past time of two

Whole brothers who loved the

Same things and loved the

Differences between their halves. But

Emmet is always Emmet. And

Ingo is always Ingo. Stop

Trying to diminish their worth.

Thank you.
