stays, firmish, like some lone priest 520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP1P0yu8QS
at some abandoned temple, the frail figure 520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRllT4RFYSc
who amidst those tourists520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvCmJ2pj4Q
is the only one left who believes in the gods 520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81Bj1uUdcW
his precious church was built to exalt.

we want to get that mask off, right520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA86WwbYnpQ
but lost in those surging waves of inky, shrieking, metaphors520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXozNAzcahS
and the neverending tears from a splattered brush of fingers 520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsU7WJ0KjE
and gross bloody tendons dripping from a heart onto the carpet520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwdQONGuXj
the mask clutches me in terror.
It’d be cruel to take it off now, in this storm. I need to keep it safe520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI4Bj3m42p
sheltered from rain that patters away at it520Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iv7YthEnM

and skip, childlike, into the warmth of something happy.
