The same person who said, I can make you anything as long as you please me !? The way they all see what they can be - the way they all know exactly who you are !? Make me your wonderful importance to life, that doesn't assume their isn't a mark !? I want someone outside to say !? Put this PENCIL, back to its original point !? I want someone to say this pencil made perfect sense!
