A Picture Of Dorian Gray

the first poster has pretty much everything all wrong, please ignore it. the writer is definitely oscar wilde. dorian has a picture paints of him, and wishes that the painting will absorb all of his age, faults and sins. the painting grows more and more ugly,though dorian stays absolutely gorgeous even in the face of rampant drug usage, tons of food, tons of sex, tons of vioelence. at the end of his life he is incredibly ashamed of himself and stabs the painting, thinking it will make him real and give him all his sins. in reality, he dies as soon as the painting is stabbed and his servants find him, old and wrinkled and destroyed. the picture returns to the beautiful image it once was. i guess if he hadnt sinned or done so many bas things and then stabbed the painting, then it wouldnt have killed him.. but the painting was so violently ill and sinned that it was death. and you're right.. this is basically a fun, nonsense song on a lark with cute lyrics of sandwiches and rich life and mansions like dorian once lived
