Observation 15 it

#m Every crease and wrinkle Every mile walked every heartbeat closer To THE ULTIMATE END Skin seems more real

painful, yes?

Painful to

To LOOK

Hdsee

And to

LavE.

With e^/ery cut It is

The body more tangible With every sharp pang We feel so much more human

painful

But so perfectly Beautifully Human.

With every cry.

It is in our own pain That we are most human. When the dungeon walls are cracked down And he or sheThe real he or sheComes STREAMING OUT On bile and TEARS.

The passions of lust are so fupfwjmt

An alternate

reality of

heartbelats

Flesh And Emotions Sensations and Instinct Pulsing us forward More animal because we enjoy it.

Just beyond the pain

Love born of pain

Love strengthened through adversity

a muscle made vigorous from repeated challenges Love born of pain rises Like the first sunrise over the flooded earth How MUCH MORE POWERFUL Did the sun seem Shining on all the obstinate WUER

How MUCH MORE

BEAUTIFUL

the rainbow Arching over desolation

So GAUDY

How MUCH MORE HUMAN The people bowed in prayer In the midst of awful

Like bright paintings

destruction.

And laughter To COVER UP the holes IN

the wall

Masks to cover up our blight Reasons without ouestions But

pain,

Beautiful pain

Shows every gray
