Jap Po-Biz: Listless

#Kabuki monstrosities of cute    *White snivel, and children who sniffle as they walk.     The containers used for oil. Little sparrows* **shopping-malls of Shinto reactors tsunamis of Hello-Kitty schoolgirl porn**    *Pretty, white chicks who are still not fully fledged     and look as if their clothes are too short for them* **tiny plates of aesthetically-arranged trivialities meaningless Engrish phrases on T-Shirts**      Last year’s paper fan. A night with a clear moon            One needs a particularly beautiful fan for some special occasion **in herd-like apathy, they download Anime Girlfriend App the robotic allure of the Orient defined**     *To wash one’s hair, make one’s toilet, and put on scented robes      An earthen cup. A new metal bowl. A rush mat* cramped restaurant-bars with detailed replicas of food#
