musicboxing asked: Nina, I've been thinking. Now that we're bros in the same ghetto community (aka tumblr), I should find you a nickname. And although your name is very cute and already sounds like one, I'll still do it. So yeah, I'll let you know when I come up with one, haha. I love your tumblr, by the way, and the pictures and quotes are awesome.

"Genius Child" by Langston Hughes
This is a song for the genius child. Sing it softly, for the song is wild. Sing it softly as ever you can - Lest the song get out of hand.
Nobody loves a genius child.
Can you love an eagle, Tame or wild? Can you love an eagle, Wild or tame? Can you love a monster Of frightening name?
Nobody loves a genius child.
Kill him - and let his soul run wild.
