A Credo On Pain













I believe in Beauty and Grace,
So I believe in Pain(1).
Because I believe these can be Painful(1),

Because I also believe in pain(0).
And this is hideous and graceless.

Though I have lived them both,

The distinction comes not from
how I experienced or interpreted,
But from the source and the end.
Whether I acted alone, was acted upon,
Was shaped, or further malformed.
