Experience Poker

The multiple sides of identity: some are underdeveloped; others overdeveloped. Within the complex and multifaceted chutes of existence, personality sides are strengthened by pure experience while others are left dormant, barren.

The human mind is vast. When you step inside and take the tour, observe the furnished rooms first, widely occupied with their delicate, lived-in fashions, tasteful decadence, peculiar hangings all of which reflect identity. Then, after your protruding eyes have drank their fill, walk through the abandoned wing. Cracks litter the walls; doors hang on broken hinges. Neglect is the sole inhabitant. Never will you find a mind whose rooms are all filled, where sleeping dust does not lie. These empty rooms are unlucky cards in the somber deck, dealt out in the unavoidable game of experience poker.
