The home-bound Octogenarian trundles from the Mall's town centre

"Playing For Keeps"

What the bleep is up with all the creeps

It's time to release the beast off the leash

I want the receipt back for this life:
Return it,
Get the money,
Buy a 38-gauge trip to the end.

Once given, forever relinquished.
It is mine.
You let...

Where dreams collide and realities seem askew.
Let me take you on a flight,
where words dance and emotions ignite.
