The Lesson

A beautiful piece from a man I've never met, but for whom I have a great respect.

This was obviously a performance art peice, although I probably did not find it as moving as someone who actually practices the form might.

As for the kiss at the end, you can see it coming from the opening...or at least I could.

I enjoyed it more because I understood the form and the technique. Yes, the kiss was expected. :>
