Jack London's To Build a Fire is more than a story; it is a stark, unforgettable confrontation with the raw power of nature and the frailty of human pride.

Good or Evil isn’t a book—it’s a cut. Not a fade. Not a trim. But a deep, internal shave—removing the myths, masks, and mistaken judgments we carry like overgrown sideburns. You see, most men don’t struggle because they’re evil. They struggle because they’ve been handed a dull pair of scissors to judge a world full of tangled truths. From the boardroom to the barbershop, I’ve watched men—CEOs, addicts, artists, and hustlers—sit in my chair and confess. And every time, the story was the same: "I thought I was the good guy. Until the mirror told me otherwise."

Every Halloween, the building unlocks the door, and this time, it was my turn for an invite. I would have turned it down, but I wasn't given a choice. And when the doors opened, I met a man waiting in the dark. Pastor Cole. A killer who preached salvation and killed you with a smile. I’ve heard a lot of confessions from the dying, but his was different. He didn’t want forgiveness. He wanted witnesses. He said the thirteenth floor was his church—that the voices behind the walls were his congregation. He said the Matron still keeps his sermons running.
