To Grapple With The CurrentIf every moment, / Like a seashell tossed on a rocky beach, / is made to shatter,

UncertaintyIf I were to gather my courage I would gladly be comforted among the rose petals of my lips; the cherished Universe, as a kind, caring Mother, would extend her sacrificial arms for me and comfort her with her kisses! Our wonderful words would wander into our eyes in the tunnels of secret telepathies; phenomenally laughing stars! / "I know I'm still strangely ridiculous today, and yet the eccentric inertia of men in love as men in love;" I would protect myself from self-damaging disappointments and yet cling to the tropical atmosphere of love tendrils! / In the selfish depths of my childish soul, patience is wasting patience! Thinned hugs revolve around Procrustean beds, like notched knives! Disturbed innermost compulsion is chasing me to confess with open mouths of surprise to many who thought they were not even known!

Ruptcy proceedingsAnyone who has become a caress and has satiated for many years now looks down on his luxury citadel: self-tanning, solarium kittens can already easily lose their basic colors! The dreamy lifestyle and the stylish jaccudzi fall apart into its parts! The prostitution of Being a ********** can no longer be traced; even at events, a stone-rich snarling shell can be witnessed by those staring at the screen! / Distinguished, twinkling accomplice-masonry smiles at wedding moments; one is barely twenty-two, while the other is already seventy-five! Between two hot quarrels, a giggling, grinning charm-grin! Prolonged myocardial fever, near infarction after promising! / They embrace each other like the newly initiated, while in the depths of their souls a superficial blush breaks their superstitious petals! The price of any phenomenal glow is real Betrayal! Why whirl if someone longs for a normal life on the side of the happiness found? Under the roof is the well-assembled dowry! Dads of large families broke out of the gate-closing panic because they longed for the adrenaline-boosting nectars of common forbidden fruits!

Untitled 2The morning begins with another bottle. Her / broken mirror has already spoken its lies, / crucified her with a stranger's face invading

RoshaA Procrustean woman's tale / in an orbit does tell that this snitch / here wasn't Montgomery whether sound must hitch

Raju's NotesRaju, the hollow-cheeked overthinker, / Whose nose had grown into his navel, / Hanged himself in the hostel room
