The Lake City
The Lake City, grow from the curse,
Become forgetful, and while history has gas.
They are the product of this concept; for example, people may be Bo's.
Although this is only an example.
They emerged until a tower
Control the sky, immersed in the past with the clever
Look like swans and the tip of the tree branch candle
Burning until all the hatred of those who become incapable of love.
When you stay with your own ideas
There are more and more intense sense of emptiness afternoon
It must be vented to the distress of others
Fly like a lighthouse-like those around you
Night is a sentinel
So far most of your time to play the creative game
But we have a comprehensive plan for you to be good
Example, we want you to be careful of the desert,
Or rough seas, or others close to the air as the occasion,
Press your back awakened a dream,
If the sea breeze caress your child's face.
But "the past" have been here, you incubated their own plans.
The worst is not over, but I know
You will be happy here, and this situation because you
What logic is not able to juggle the climate
Sometimes gentle, sometimes elegant, right.
You build a mountain-like building,
Thought to be devoted all your time into this monument
The wind is to make it tough petals of desire
It erupted into tears of disappointment Changhong.

Street musicians
One dead, one alive, he
Twisted soul is life and life to walk the streets hesitate
Wear their own "identity" as wrapped in the coat,
The same streets day after day, fuel gauge, shadow
Under the tree. Than any person is summoned to the farther
Increasing through the grace and manners suburbs, when the Autumn down to the
Luxurious leaves, the broken cart
Belongs to an unknown family, was pushed into the
Yesterday and today this way. A staring
Look at the other intends to do, and finally Lule Xian,
So they hate each other, but also relative to forgotten.
So, I shook, soothing piano only ordinary embankment,
Only know that people forget the popular tunes
But insisted it would be a tasteless refrain
Free play. November, this year, flip the body
More clearly the gap between the day,
Meat on the bones more pronounced.
What about the root of our problem areas
Gone with the Wind as the smoke hanging like: How do we picnic in the pine forest,
In the cave, there are constantly leaking water
Leave our garbage, sperm, feces,
Everywhere, polluting the landscape. Looks like we may have to create.

Jolly 维坦
Just because I'm wearing a huge hat,
Crowns of hair under a wooden buckle, the children cry
Coming on to me, through me. At this time of season
Zero-day did not give curious to provide other views of the executioner.
In his room, they spoke of the rope. Them over the window.
I have seen and know
Bad outcome and a good stack together. Them in the future,
So not very far.
There's quite a steep bank,
The shadow it cast in the river bed above.
An adventure, an outing, they may be worth it.
We could do a few pleasant trip.
Then he took a bat and some clams,
In the hope is that the gate is always covered with brine strong odor.
Which is the same. Window frames have been removed, I mean
He can be with me through, and we still see ourselves.

Last month
Security has not changed - only
A piece of gray, the sun falling in this place.
Housing seems to be more heavy,
Since they had to leave.
In fact, it's time in the record is empty.
Produce a draw once time
Game receded, slowly back into the night.
College is opening the future
A door, determined to
Let not the sun poured into the halls of fruit
Chair with books and papers pile high with the beginning.
Prudent man who is erratic this month,
It confirmed the feature is
An eternal value has changed hands.
And you can have a new car,
A ping-pong and a garage, but the thieves
Miraculously stole everything.
In his book, only a rebellious photo
The garden, full of shouting and color.

Vetiver
Slowly through the years, such as a bear hay,
When the flowers sing their lines,
Stir in the bottom of the pond barracuda.
The touch pen is cool.
Rotate the stairs,
Broken through the garland, to be in the alphabet
Letters of the distilled depression.
Now is the winter, it's cotton candy
Palaces, there are concerns the mouth
Discourse, forehead and cheek stain pink, this color was called "Rose of the ashes."
How many snakes and lizards shed their skin off,
To make time go down the drain,
Sink deep into the sand, and then winding flows
Outcome. Everything was so smooth, and now,
Hey, it spread out so that the hands,
When a change that out, sharp
Such as the throat between the hooks, and decorated with tears flowing,
Through our endless flow into a basin called.
Everything is free, the door
Intends to open there.
Do not keep pace with whatever you can get.
In a room, there was in his youth, checking
Found it boring and empty, feels there are many holes.
Ah, let me be with you now, unless the field
Embrace our joint us, unless
The birds to lay down their twigs,
Fishermen recover their smooth space network,
While others stepped up around the huge bonfire
Population, as is the case
We mean that we start, eliminating the need for
The leaves cry, those last little bit of silver.

Adult stacks
"... ... Found a house sparrow,
Swallow found a nest for themselves, "
("Hymns Psalms" 84)
In remote mountainous areas, where we know
Some sparrows do not know what, every one
Housing obviously better than others, "packaging"
Are now ready to begin. It came,
Like a bunch of papyrus as the imagination free
And identification, and then as fixed does not work.
Tengen a little dark. Sent you
A man ran down the stairs to inquire about
The process of real events, and the answer always came
Elusive but polite: you have to go
... ...
Oh, lights went out. That is, in general education
Like paper thin but strong side. When a thief
Outside, in a dark place, it is the same.
No freedom, not free free free.
Only can do is pick up the book, Mosa Zhao it
Then in front of my face open. That you know.

Frost
Stuck in the wrong dream, you made a
Alley, _set_ foot on the streets of a broad weak.
Mirror fall from the tree. Is the time.
Again for the start of this disorder and still
Financing the. But rumors fed it.
So far the road is always high,
For some people light a lamp, while others,
It is a desire and distress about the wonderful sight.
At the same time, the only important
Tall things break his own:
It was all clear, and sometimes,
For those who will vote in his view,
It is vague, and more beautiful. This is
Chamber, where, in the past only the king
Come, and now, two or three young people can
Sitting there, nervous and comfortable, talking about
Bike, bone: no small thing. This is very good, but the dark
Seems to come faster and more gathered at the accident
Place, cut out the map a name.
So you start to get nervous.
In fact, need not be so. More bizarre things elsewhere.
Here, in the dark, secret conservative
Is dense, it is everything. There are several common
Name to the things around: even they are not non-use
Not. But I hope
I do not have a way to make more thoughtful
Will not have a patch of ground bumps
Clear shadow. I'm poor?
God is no longer welcome me?
There is enough dark green to cover us.
But we are always on the end of the silent,
Not to say familiar things.

The image of cruel
This is a high degree of problem; may be
Latitude. I saw them leave the office.
Seven o'clock, they cool to start the car,
To the same patterns and some small tilt of the fixture strange
Spend the evening. What credibility? I said,
Or more likely is that you ask, can
Being freed from these? Oh, yes,
One boy said, you can temporarily step to
Into the hall. Spell some relief to
And the old screaming into the night,
The night before is not here, nor is this.
Its more formal, more serious side, this is only
A double. Here are some of the symmetry.
After, you protest: how is it so
Here, can not stop sharing?
Can not wait to listen to children
Tilt to the inside weed? Cold rats waiting to hear
Until dawn? Today, the yard has a tree of each block
Every heart has a lover, only our
Do not know how to take the night in tents
Can the past be the past of the city.

There's still life stranger
Come on, Ulrich, the sky a huge
Octagon above are from our adoption.
Soon the world will move.
Your affair, what is it?
But a storm in the teapot.
But this storm release
Strange resonance: the power of God
Retracted into the infinitely small roots,
Hanging, as the roar of bees,
Such as birch, in the absence of the autumn wind,
It leaves hanging white.
Call these phenomena or trivial,
The ruins of the distant heavenly flash,
But the great terrible frame was still there
Full of remorse, full of straw,
Or at another level, full of snow
The beautiful singing in the evanescent.
Are you good at persuading them to
Sing with you.
The top of your horse to graze, oblivious
Daylight inside the barn.
Ivy hanging on the rock surface.
A white pointed roof.
Now, all the characters are fictional drama,
The front of the shadow of the past, waiting.

In another time
Actually is because you stopped
But does not need to do so,
The woods are not too dark, but you
Was stopped, and then move forward that
The idea seems to deliberately want to stop embarrassing.
By then, everything here,
All involved in the night:
Theatre patrons on the car in front of
There, the light increased, and then condensed into
Little silver, then listening.
A whitewash, rustic poetry
Consistent with that description, but not
Is so completely. There's nothing fast,
But things done quickly.
My childhood cartoon era
Into a bundle of printed matter; see, ah,
What is this thing printed above?
Who knew it would be?
At this point it is panting, as if a fish hanging on the line.
No doubt, the portrait than you want
Still flashy, but all
Inside the main aspects:
There, you bend beneath the waterfall,
Read as if the moss in the
Small sign, so everything is revived,
But more quietly. No way to put it on record.
