It's duly noted that

An anomaly in life is met with

Strength, character...

And even marksmanship?

Is it wrong if I go to the shamans?

If knees are scraped, often from temple visits?

If I dine with monks, for a percentage of hope?

If a spark of my dignity is diminished, after

Crying to falling skies?

Soaking in their bitterness, God's valor ?

God's favor I hope?

Is it wrong to make one's way?

Bend the rules?
