What are the numbers, does anybody know? Does anybody care how many we have to go? Can anyone, anywhere believe it’d get this high? Probably so, as we continue pretending to try How many incidents are recorded each week? Not just in the world, but also of here I speak This time it’s one and […]
WYGIWYSNISM
Is that the best you can do, one of them asked I think I’d do much better if you just relaxed I think you’d do better if you ever learned how A fine time you’ve picked to think of that now You’ve hinted you want it done but never asked Always be polite, we’re told; […]
