iambic pentameter 

Each set of sounds has one that shall be stressed
and in these two shall there be one is not
of sets of two no less than five be wrought
and with these sets a subject be addressed
if with these lines one seeks to form a verse
the rhymes each line one first must understand
two sets of four the first and last shall stand
between lay those who differ from the first

at the end of all shall be six lines again
cointaineth they the rhythm of above
their rhyme can differ but I shall begin
with rhyme of three and then the same again
second different from those it is one of
'tis pit'ous that I lack a line to end
See above as example...

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
