The patterns in the following tie dye creations remind me of “Afro Samurai”, an anime miniseries featuring the voice of Samuel L. Jackson. Afro Samurai wears the coveted “Number One Headband”. He has to keep his guard up constantly because there’s always someone plotting to take his place by whatever means necessary.
Some things never change. Gang violence. Political arguments. Corporate back-stabbing. Fighting to gain the most influential position in the family. There’s always someone willing to vanquish the person standing in the Number One spot.
Sounds more like a Catch-22 than a sweet spot to stand in. What looks like “position before submission” to your opponent might feel like a trap to you.
Constant fighting is a trap, even if you win all the time.
Number One Headband
Bloody battles plus the white headband #AfroSamurai style.
Afro Samurai
With black eyes again. Plus, the blood-filled landscape. There are at least two different faces in this t-shirt.

Ninja Ninja
Sidekick of Afro Samurai, Ninja Ninja showed up to keep Afro company and to give him advice. Which, of course, Afro ignored. When your cornerman speaks, you should listen.
This shirt has many faces, depending on how your eyes pick up the pattern. Near the top of the shirt, I see a small figure with an intense stare, arms out-stretched and sparks flying out of each hand.

The game I call Demon Spotting developed over time as I worked through emotional entanglements and confusing break-ups. My misery became code words. Code words became mat drills. Mat drills became winning combinations. And my confusion lifted. Consider this your invitation to play. Clarity is freedom.
