Tale è l’orror  che assale la mia mente
Di quanto ho visto e rivissuto prima

Ancora in sogno vaga la mia mente
Nell’ignoto esplorando come Ulisse
Quando uno squarcio si apre immantinente.
Un uomo curvo col cappuccio nero
Che in tempi oscuri per la chiesa visse
Mi si rivolge in modo triste e altero.

I've dreamed of something special for quite some time,
a vacation I've envisioned that would be simply sublime.
I'll be leaving from Miami on a round-the-world cruise
and I reserved a balcony room to enjoy the scenic views.

Good morning Poison Squirrels,
Today I am going to address your bowel problems

My class groans.
We don’t like to think about them.
We are teens.

Your mouth chews up food, right? Asks Mr. Lee.

porta con sé una croce e la promessa di
riscatto
circoli danzanti attorno al tuo dolore
sussurrando parole dolci a voi come voi
try & sleep,
la sua voce si suppone per portare conforto
suoi incantesimi dovrebbero cacciare gli
problemi che state...

Born with a wise old head on his

Who couldn't hear nor see nor speak,

and dusk, absorbing sun, exudes bright flavors for the eye.
It's eye candy, often variegated, splendid in its hue.

Pirate cat in stealth mode wiggles his joy.
Hunting prey like an eager cat boy.
Rats on the ship were singing ahoy.
Licking their paws in Hawaiian poi.
