Robinson CrusoeI killed my friend,
I never wanted,

Under this influential shower.

Either had to earn the prize.
It was...

I Practice the Art of SeductionDay in, day out… I’m here

by sunrise
when the serenity of the dawn is ravished by unknown
voices…
When the Sun passes through the merry-go-round
beyond the horizon
when the turbulent wind is silenced,
and the voice of the cicadas
is no longer heard…

Boa's Ark - Part 11. MORNING HAS BROKEN

their eyes a wild mascara mix)

Hoping to go unnoticed
