Leta, the generalissimo's wife, was burping his firstborn, & the baby regurgitated milk onto her dress.

"Ai, this will #stain," she murmured, but the generalissimo's eyes lit up.

"Darling, see how the pattern resembles the shape of the despicable nation of Abiri on our western border? It's a sign: we must invade."

"Cherished one, a patch of vomit cannot means such things," his wife said anxiously.

"Nonsense. I read it in a #book. Secretary! Assemble my staff!"

"Oops!" Bebe said, as a big dollop of purple ice cream dripped down and landed on his white shirt.
"Bebe!" chastised Popo. "That's going to leave a #stain!"

«
LADY MACBETH: Out, damned spot, out, I say! One. Two. Why then, ’tis time to do ’t. Hell is murky. Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?

"Consuming a piece of #art is two biographies meeting: the #biography of the #artist that might disrupt the consuming of the art; the biography of the #audience member that might shape the viewing of the art...
Like the #stain, #beauty happens to us."
