Which of the initial snippets will be badly repeated,
when the anchoring watchdog on committees of snippets
condemned or intended for the so-called

Internet, underpinned by enshrining licensing engines,
has to ban their standards and publish their transgressions?

you must take a collision course.

The Famous Planet


Much as wings believe feathers to be thought,
the path to camp or pinnacle advanced by glittery devices
on a treacherous catwalk of miracles 20ft over the Earth,

over sweet flags of playful crystals,
over hoops and lashings of glowing Tiger Lily,
and ranged on stone wings of lightweight microlith,

relishing its blunt unsuitable edge
fashioned by a complicated hammer
to follow the small and cunning years.

We don't know anything about creative
solutions to solve the world’s biggest problems,
or Russia's once-vaunted superhero.

We have no idea when the movie ends.

to avoid spinning around the Earth.

I believe in a combination of accidents,

Among other things, fate is the final scene.

Mr. Diamond was picked up by the local

Wes made a menopausal recommendation to the thousand ablaze.
Others called the replacement office to record the sweat while
several of the protestors forced a big round hormone history.

Flashes of a square, angry multiplex
who aimed the chanting, who made a revolution up.
Such an average face at moonrise racked with hopes and harms.

Not a 1960’s quirky dramedy of the heart.
In this memorial kingdom, the dreamgirls take kicking medicine
and the others budget in the bone of former wilderness.

Precedents are quickly spoiled,

Predictions are often doomed by someone else's stubbornness.

But how feeble an oracle would I be
if I had no delusional suspicions?

The implicit promise of changing a story

Is poetry living or dead? A frantic friend told

something" and was suffering from "convulsions."

Said friend then contradicted himself and told said
911 operator that poetry was found in the Hollywood
Hills—"just a severed head." A survey, however,

showed that poetry is now made in China "by crude,
cynical squirrels and other wildlife" and "lives unnoticed
at the edge of society." Laureates, have a seizure now.
