Sincerity and Innocence





Portraits hung in empty halls.

Frameless heads on nameless walls,

with eyes that watch the world and can't forget.

Like the stranger that you've met;



The ragged men in ragged clothes,

The silver thorn of bloddy rose,

Lie crushed and broken,

On the virgin snow




-Vincent by Don McLean


What a beauty.



Oh,

What a beauty.



These are new songs to me.
These are the new arrivals.



Of sensible beauty -

As I age, to understand.
