brain goes gherkin
elohim broadcast softwear signals travel between suns
Ozeki east ice ring system girds the loins
wet dream hitler's brain goes gherkin in the pickle jar
yo semite sam why don't you gin up this durn wall
chew the terebinth twig grow wings and foresight eyes
try looking down her front the stars already gone
racing daybreak twenty tailors thread the hill in place
a church's one foundation garment
spill out your doors o house of the latterday serpents
amadeus 2.0 fileshorn
death is life and near is far on the blue guitar
special on martyr chops worn wholly
my body in disrepair hang it over the back of the chair
