Though night is always close, complete negation


2-217051821_38274e6d44.jpg
Ready to drop...


3-216243603_12dd968399.jpg
... on wisdom and emotion,


4-217051805_1914daee6f.jpg
Night from the air or the carnivorous breath,


5-215459695_8e2053a53c.jpg
Still it is right to know...


6-215487017_e1863ca9f9.jpg
... the force of death,


7-215459698_fc89a30eba.jpg
And, as you do, persistent, tough in will,


8-217051810_e2b3101be5.jpg
Raise from the excellent the better still.
