For Giving

The image sees. The image feels. The image acts. (Bennett, CB, 195) The image gives. The image is given. The image proliferates. The image betrays. The image for gives. The image is for giving. The image is for exposition. The image is for beauty. The image is from the good. The image is mother, and is father, is both mother and father, and neither mother nor father; for it is the child. The image is the parent, and the children, both parent and children, and neither parent nor children.
