The man before the painting
completely blacked out
withdrawn
dolefully silent
intent on the shades...
who speaks of revolutions and revolts
probing to the root of the roots
killer of hypocrisy
doyen of impartiality
impartial onlooker of carnal pleasures
friend of friends
arch enemy (!)
never forgiving a grudge

Such is a friend of mine, my friends!!!
