Ekimian Quotes & Poetry, 2024 by @fragmented_imagination (B Sanders)
This is a collection of words featured in Batum that I have included in the description of some of my work up to this point. I'm aware that some of the works that I link to are older than 2024, but they are here for a quick reference for what works feature Batum in some way. Yes, this is more or less a showcase for Batum, and I did it as an excuse to pad out the literature submissions on the ALCA group. Ashamed? Not really if people want to follow my example.
