An Observation made within Sam Spratt's "IX. The Monument Game" - Just when I thought I was to be relegated to listening from The Outside, only to hear the cheers and grunts of those participating inside, a kind and generous hand reached out—co-signed by The Artist himself—to give me the opportunity to join The Game. It was the sacrifice of another, not my own, that has allowed me to write this, and I'm humbled and forever grateful. Amidst the chaos and brutality, moments like these will bind us, and that's why this Monument will be remembered for centuries to come.
