El greco
A pyrotechnic display of mightEmerald green ascending blissHis troubled face suffering the agony of skiesHence up and down the bench I went.Closer and further,awed in discovery.It lasted what my pained feet.Indeed the fire etched in my eyes.Ferocious I came to see how much of lifeWithout imagined reality;It comes down crushing minds.Not everyone survives without imposed…

Jacket
Round and deformed, Its red being a challenge of fit. First the back took up a while, Its big b making it un-straight. Then the front wouldn’t reach. Try two acute unmatching halves to make sense.

La estructura no debería llamar la atención hacia sí misma, ni tampoco ser usada de forma tan estricta. THE WRITER’S JOURNEY ~ THIRD EDITION. Christopher Vogler.
