None were to question the planet they'd...

So cramped ...
Strain to move,
Flex and budge in tiny increments ...

Her slender fingers rested on her heaving bosom,
Listening to unstopping...

When we set out on a road trip
We didn’t stick to the old script
And were gladly amazed
And rarely unfazed
Hitting strange towns though some were skipped

We started from Thatsnot, OK
Which was more or less ok
But then...
