BECAUSE

In a world beyond the known, far from the ties that bind to life, a scorpion sits gazing up at stars - even those shining brighter than of his love and even so his lust to reach further at times, to best even the furthest from himself and raise the tail - the sting appropriate, defined by the atrocities

perceived... as stars are made to dim and others cloaked in darkness and in doom feint full, till shadows lone remain where life once shone so bright.

Because a star escaped his gaze - that once. Because of this the scorpion maintains raised eyes and unfurled tail.

I didn't even know 'feint' was a word.

Why we're all here... to learn new words... at least I am. Though by definition this word is a 'ruse' in and of itself? Thanks for stopping by :)

We are not here to learn new words.

Haha... was waiting for you to bite on that. God help me I have so many words, I need to lose some more than I need to gain some. I guess I used 'words' in a broader sense, as in what people do with them? A word can be taken in by 10 different people and spat out 10 different ways? Something like that anyway...

Tell him he has tiny hands and that Obama pretty likely isn't a Muslim terrorist sympathizer. Also, he does in fact look like a man faced orange haired orangutan...
