Through the night, a centipede walked…

Deteriorated and self-abused….what have we learned? are we older? is the night any darker? or will our morning be brighter? NOTHING at all! ….

BUT something did happen….a galaxy was discovered when we spoke…like natives, we chanted our own version of the TRUTH….but with garbled speech, and only through our grinding teeth, we came to know a lie…OUR OWN….

And now we continue….BUT NO! I LIE!…..

SOMETHING ELSE DID HAPPEN…..a veil was pierced! Friendship and camaraderie prevailed! Yes! Our young and “still-not-fully-formed minds” achieved what the “old-and-wise-and-ever-lasting” never could!…

We spoke….we pierced the veil….and through vomit, blood and crud, we came out to the other side….we prevailed!….

And it was BEAUTIFUL!
