Je jaillirais de l'éther
Je brulerais ma prison dorée
Pour répandre dans un éclair
Des flots de syllabes dénaturées
J'implorerais le silence
Je sèmerais sans encombre
D'un dédain l'indolence
De mes jours sombres
De la déconvenue d'une reine en fureur
S'envole au confin du monde les couleurs...

The Arch of Constantine is a triumphal arch in Rome, situated between the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill. It was erected to commemorate Constantine I's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge on October 28, 312. Dedicated in 315, it is the latest of the existing triumphal arches in Rome, from which it differs by spolia, the extensive re-use of parts of earlier buildings.
The arch spans the Via Triumphalis, the way taken by the emperors when they entered the city in triumph. This route started at the Campus Martius, led through the Circus Maximus and around the Palatine Hill; immediately after the Arch of Constantine, the procession would turn left at the Meta Sudans and march along the Via Sacra to the Forum Romanum and on to the Capitoline Hill, passing both the Arches of Titus and Septimius Severus.

The Arch of Constantine (Italian: Arco di Costantino) is a triumphal arch in Rome, situated between the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill. It was erected by the Roman Senate to commemorate Constantine I's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge on October 28, 312.
Dedicated in 315, it is the latest of the existing triumphal arches in Rome, and the only one to make extensive use of spolia, re-using several major reliefs from 2nd century imperial monuments, which give a striking and famous stylistic contrast to the sculpture newly-created for the arch.

This Is How I’m Wired
I am DEEPER than you think. If you would like to contradict me, I'm game.
I can most likely figure you out within 5 minutes of having a conversation with you.
You have now entered my masquerade.
You can uncover your facade.
I believe myself to be genuine and I would never betray the ones I love.
I value my family and those who are REAL.
I like to be fascinated by the anomalous.
I could be your Worst Nightmare...or your Best Dream.
I am constantly thinking and I love to write poetry.
I have Loved... Lost... and Learned.
The three things that every soul should feel.
I yearn for those that put a smile on my face.
I crave for the one that will give to me what I will give back.
I do not belong in anyone's Virus.
Satisfaction is found on my own.
Don't Lust for what you See - Desire what you know.
Truth and love are my law and Worship.
I hunger to be an obstruction of your mind.
I thirst for you to figure me out.
Form and conscience are my manifestation and guide.
Nature and peace are my shelter and companion.
I'd EAT you ALIVE.
Order is my attitude.
An inflicting wound.
Beauty and perfection are my attack.
It's a strange desire.
-A look of Entrapment... that may be - Hazardous to your Health.
