small talk

small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk and a boiling kettle the rough size of his dick.

Same Day Delivery is probably a curse which everyone can very well go out for a fag while i think about: is it not the same to hand-pick flowers than to pick-buy them if i dislike him nonetheless? sure, the smell of burnt fuel could be as nice as a fistful noise of bouquet plastic; if you, like me, measure the gesture against kerbside solace; if you, like me, prize not yet recyclable plastic as much as unburnt soil; if you, like me, go ahead and tag yourself to every chewed gum in the asphalt, a fossilized sort of urban surveillance.
