And there is more: the butterfly wings adorning his shoulders bear sinister names that are far from poetic and butterfly-like-H ydergine, Dynabolon, Levothyrox, Cleregil, Kinose - lem, Trophobolene-once again reminding us that the most aggressive, harmful drugs course through the bodybuilder''s veins, and that they are least likely to bestow upon him the graceful flight of even the lowliest butterfly See more
