A painting unpainted cannot be hung upon the wall of the museum, nor may linger beyond its physical destruction.
Why must we always have existed in order to be born? Why would a pre-tangible existence have any sort of impact upon where we go from birth? Wouldn't it be a bit redundant to be born twice?

Always power and beauty, but never left-ankleic? Bad dancing can be a nigh undefeatable force.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
