There's nothing but Grace here,
Mercy showed her pretty face,
Like queens who have been enthroned;
Humble, gentle queens with their faces to the table,
amidst the other cards of those who make up the rest of the Kingdom.
They rule with their iron fists of Love and Sincerity,
so that all jokers and jacks will be amazed,
by your style... they'll all be awestruck.
While you were not looking you were taken advantage of,
but still you gave and you gave, unconditionally, uninhibitedly.
Four Kings ruled with their respective Queens:
Grace, Mercy, Love, and Sincerity.
In the deck of a shuffled land and gaming world.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
