| Description |
A year ago, I found an injured bird, tortured by some poor soul with fire. I stood by him and his mate until the police came to terminate him. It took ages and standing there, I felt sorry and ashamed for my self and my kind. A dying T-Cell, an alien left behind, man, woman, child or fetus, a creep, a ghost, a worm toasting in the sun, a donkey or a specimen on a lab tray. "Blessed be the man sitting down. He who is a holy without thorns, with out a cross. He who wears pants or puts on a hat" quote from Roy Andersson's film Songs from the Second Floor. Beauty. All dressed up with no a party to got to. Fame with no audience. The End. |
