All things unholy, marked by curse,

That keep the spirit undefiled.

The ugly of the universe.
The ugly of the universe.
The rough, the wicked, and the wild
The rough, the wicked, and the wild
That keep the spirit undefiled.
That keep the spirit undefiled.
With these I match my little wit

  1. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve seen elk. None were ever captured—not the elk, the sightings. And then you brought me this one, a permanent view and showing no antler racks. I wouldn’t have known what these critters were without those antlers. They look like someone didn’t finish the painting. You performed a miracle capturing them in the dark.
