So many words and paper, who can stand it.
I told you the truth about my distancing up.

no better and no worse than the ordinary human tragedy.
over thirty years we have been going to our dispute.

and dumb, dazzled by the emerald essence green.
dives into a foam at the line of the surf, swim far
, where the horizon is a skłębieniu bananas, with pierzastymi
windmills of palms.
