Observation
On a rock by the water, I watch glowing primates hiding their faces. The wind whispers an ancient secret: the Monkey God watches. Do they fear an omen or hide a mystery called human? A frog-king without a throne, I fear neither man nor world. Beneath my green mask beats a tender heart. I leave treasures for seekers. 0d6bf6efdd60ea869832a149ec8d4336d9ff56b2b065cdc8d5127ecf76ba37a7 982fb54b77ed371db6d643822f0da520a1a1e96d2703dca3289893fa1a5 Suddenly, a cry breaks the silence. A being is born, gentle as dawn

"Art is like sex", says the frog from his rock, wild and alive. Each brushstroke, each leap, sparks passion and breathes love
