double decker


foul and infected and swollen and scabby and horrid... bugger... but marvelling between the groans and the cursing and the smothering in ointments and the gargling with burning fire at the sonic snuggling of the heartbreakiest heartbreaker and the yodeliest squacker... 

once upon a timea girl with moonlight in her eyesput her hand in mineand said she loved me so

peace is a united effort for co-ordinated control
peace is the will of the people and the will of the land
with peace we can move ahead
