spawns maturation of belief
unexpected blinking
concealed rage peeking out of the cloth
without crisis
the mind grows weak
the senses dull
tarnished innocence
striking contrasts popping out of the silence
the soul struggles for purpose
the mind grapples with eternity
the body staggers along in tandem
