Morning inside the classroom at a private school in Kuala Lumpur before class begins. Students stand next to their desks as the teacher, standing in front, leads them in the usual morning recitations of the five national principles, their voices blending into one:
	"Kepercayaan kepada Tuhan." (Belief in God.)
	"Kesetiaan kepada Raja dan Negara." (Loyalty to the King and Country.)
	"Keluhuran Perlembagaan." (Supremacy of the Constitution.)
	"Kedaulatan Undang-Undang." (Rule of Law.)
	"Kesopanan dan Kesusilaan." (Courtesy and Morality.)
Wing-Sun repeats the words automatically, his eyes drift across the classroom, catching a glimpse of Siu-Zi, the new girl, standing in her usual spot near the window.
“And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.” (Revelation 7:4-8, KJV)
Only create 12 tribal ensigns.

An Asian Slice
At the dark end of an alley on a moonless night,
A youth squats low to the ground, turned toward the wall with his face in his lap.  Someone might think he’s sleeping.  He’s smoking heroin.  Soon he’ll fall over and soil himself, and stay right there until dawn.

Back at the neon-lit mouth of this dark alley, 
hookers walk back and forth, hurrying to get past the alley, either for fear or because is smells so bad.  Eyelids, all painted golden, Asian whores always look like they’re made of candy.  Candy it is; but a snarling cat awaits its prey.

Documentary Photography Style, Analog Film Grain, Warm Golden Hour Backlighting. A dynamic, joyful candid shot of a young Appalachian woman with wildly flowing, fiery red hair playing a dobro resonator guitar with immense energy on the porch of an old log cabin.

The Action & "Lively" Feel: She is sitting on a rough wooden stool with the dobro flat on her lap. She is caught mid-song, head thrown back in laughter, her red hair caught in a breeze and lit up by the setting sun. Her left hand, holding a metal slide bar, is blurring across the neck, and her right hand (wearing fingerpicks) is a blur of motion over the strings.

The Instrument: A well-used square-neck dobro. The distinctive, round shiny metal resonator cover plate reflects the warm sunset light intensely.

The Attire: Rustic and practical: a worn denim vest over a floral thermal shirt, a long patchwork skirt, and dusty leather boots.

The Setting: The cluttered log cabin porch with the hazy mountain ridges in the background remains, enhancing the authentic feel.

Golden Age Storybook Illustration Style, Rich Watercolor and Ink, Warm Sun-Drenched Lighting. A dynamic scene capturing a moment of desperate effort in a lush, overgrown vineyard.

    The Action (The Fox): A lithe, reddish-orange fox is caught in mid-air at the very apex of a maximum vertical leap. Its body is stretched precariously thin, hind legs kicking the air, and front paws strained upward. Its jaws are snapping wildly just inches below the target, eyes wide with intense, watering desire and frustration. The fox looks slightly bedraggled, suggesting this is not the first jump.

    The Prize (The Grapes): Hanging tantalizingly just out of reach from a thick, gnarled old vine is a magnificent, heavy cluster of deep purple, plump grapes. They are rendered to look incredibly juicy, dusted with natural bloom and catching the sunlight so they appear almost glowing and irresistible.

    The Setting: The afternoon sun filters through broad green grape leaves, casting dappled light on the dusty ground below, which shows disturbed earth from previous failed attempts. The overall mood is one of hot, tantalizing frustration.

The first approached the elephant and happening to fall against his broad and study side at once began to bawl, God bless me but the elephant is very like a wall. Show a blind man falling against the side of the elephant with tusks.

“Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.” (Psalms 58:7, KJVA)

Whimsical Storybook Illustration Style, Warm Color Palette, Soft Textures and Detailed Linework. A wide-angle view of a secret, crowded meeting of dozens of anthropomorphic field mice taking place on an upturned wooden crate in the corner of a cluttered, dusty barn.

The Focal Point (The Plan): In the center of the crate spotlighted by a beam of sunlight coming through a crack in the roof, a small, earnest mouse stands on its hind legs, triumphantly holding aloft a shiny brass sleigh bell tied with a bright red ribbon. The bell looks impossibly large and heavy for the mouse.

The Reaction (The Hesitation): The surrounding crowd of mice is a mix of emotions. Some in the front row are cheering with tiny paws raised. However, many others towards the back are exchanging nervous, sidelong glances, scratching their heads, or looking fearfully over their shoulders.

The Threat (The Reality): In the background, on top of a high stack of hay bales, a giant, fluffy tabby cat is fast asleep. Though sleeping, its size and sharp claws are evident, casting a shadow over the edge of the meeting area. The contrast between the small, shiny bell and the enormous sleeping predator is central to the image.
Out where the river runs wild and free
and only the brave dare row;
where the rapids are deep, and the challenge is fresh
and it takes them where it means to go.
With breakneck speed, grinning into the wind,
standing straight on the bow of their craft,
just a glimpse now and then of those captains you’ll catch
flying by, near capsizing your raft.

They’ve no time for advice to those standing on shore
or to aid the ones just wading out,
for their task is to pilot this current, they think,
and it’s all they can do to stay out of the drink,
and their lives could be gone in the space of a wink
should they lose but a moment to doubt.
Standing tall, they never must doubt!
