When Nikola Tesla was a young boy, he often was sick. Treatment was hard to come by, he never got first pick.






Nikola was the most creative out of the seven people at home. He always was carrying his own handwritten poem.
He had few friends, many were imaginary. He had a big brain that had a photographic memory, and he was always telling a silly story.

While listening on my cosmic phone
I caught words from the Olympus blown.
A newcomer was shown around;
That much I could guess, aided by sound.
"There's Archimedes with his lever
Still busy on problems as ever.
Says: matter and force are transmutable
And wrong the laws you thought immutable."
"Below, on Earth, they work at full blast
And news are coming in thick and fast.
The latest tells of a cosmic gun.
To be pelted is very poor fun.
We are wary with so much at stake,
Those beggars are a pest—no mistake."
"Too bad, Sir Isaac, they dimmed your renown
And turned your great science upside down.
Now a long haired crank, Einstein by name,
Puts on your high teaching all the blame.
Says: matter and force are transmutable
And wrong the laws you thought immutable."
"I am much too ignorant, my son,
For grasping schemes so finely spun.
My followers are of stronger mind
And I am content to stay behind,
Perhaps I failed, but I did my best,
These masters of mine may do the rest.
Come, Kelvin, I have finished my cup.
When is your friend Tesla coming up."
"Oh, quoth Kelvin, he is always late,
It would be useless to remonstrate."
Then silence—shuffle of soft slippered feet—
I knock and—the bedlam of the street.
Nikola had gray, dark eyes like a stormy sky. Nikola always was known for being the shy, but funny guy.

On a sunny day, his brother met doom. Nikola never recovered from seeing his tomb. On that same day, he saw a few pigeons. Ever since then he had hallucinations and saw visions.


By the time he was 28, he decided it was time to immigrate. He traveled by water and watched the waves slap the ship. Once in America, he met Thomas Edison and became attached to his hip. Nikola then lived in hotel rooms that aligned with the number three. This was because of his OCD. The harder he worked, the less he would eat. He once stayed up for 84 hours, working on only electricity and power.




"I do not think you can name many great inventions that have been made by married men"
He did nothing but plan and work, while his loneliness always lurked.
After working with Edison for a bit, they decided it was time to call it quits. He created the rotating magnetic field and the electric power transmission.
"I don’t care that they stole my idea… I care that they don’t have any of their own" - Nikola Tesla
Nikola did not usually receive much credit for his creations. He was taken advantage of in many situations. He never let this stop his imagination.
