Outside, it is raining, and it is the humble feeling of perishing that drives these faceless men and women. They wander around and chew on everything they find in their path. They look more like rows of locusts. They chew and chew. They stick to the windows. The monarchy passes by with its impeccable entourage. The beggars disperse and the splendor is irresistible. All uniformed and impeccably dressed in blue. They carry gleaming weapons. And their footsteps are a declaration of death. Someone throws himself in front of the gendarmes and kicks and insults rain down on him. Just as they are about to execute him, the princess takes out her fine cloth handkerchief and holds it up under the light rain. It means that this bloody lump has just been spared. Death would not be such a bad option. But the princess was showing mercy. It was unusual, but in an instant she was able to dismiss this haggard specter that threatened to live.

In a way it makes me sad. Not that the princess showed mercy but the fact the poor man is forced to continue his miserable life with a body that is more broken than before, What kind of mercy is this?

I suppose the guy threw himself down in front of the police officers because he was in some kind of conditioned trance; his primitive brain had lost its instinct for self-preservation. His hardships were so great that the thin line between life and death had been erased. A kind of automaton that just wanders around.

No one likes a shitty life with broken bones. But hey, the picture you generated isn't bad at all. If it comes to me I rather have the bullet or a final stab.

Close to death makes one only want to slide away in an endless sleep.

A super creative day/week
