They made their paints past mixing acid wash and lemonade.
In my encephalon I re-arrange the messages on the folio to spell your name.
I found an Ezra Pound and made a bet that if i establish a cigarette i'd drop it all and marry you.
Merely then a vocal comes on: "y'all can't always get what you want" – the Rolling Stones, oh woe is we, the irony!
The stones became the moss and in one case all inhibitions lost, the hipsters made a mission to the subcontract.
We drove by tractor there, the yellow harbinger replaced our pilus, we laced the dairy river with the cream of sweet vermouth.
In my brain I re-suit the messages on the page to spell your name.
You said "we only alive once" and so we touched a trivial tongue, and instantly i wanted to…I lost my train of thought and jumped aboard the Epping equally the doors were slowly closing on the globe.

In my encephalon I re-adapt the letters on the page to spell your name.
We caught the river boat downstream and ended up beside a team of angry footballers.
I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked confronting our will into the welcome doors of the casino.

Information technology's got a lovely garden, a garage for two cars to park in ("or a lot of room for storage if you've just got one").
And it'south going pretty cheap you say? "Well it's a deceased estate….aren't the pressed metal ceilings great?"
And so I run across the handrails in the shower, a collection of those canisters for coffee, tea and flour, and a photograph of a boyfriend in a van in Vietnam.
And I can't think of floorboards anymore, whether the front room faces due south or north, and I wonder what she bought information technology for.
