Stale Green Light
Time dilutes stimuli with in-flux examinations, allowing love-tap-bruises to function for hindsight. Space corrects for time if removed for inches, letters and shifting eyes.

1. A history text-book was left open on the dashboard, Through the windshield, read a statement, highlighted in green: “The State is a recent invention.” Accepting this concept, Martha entered the Mall And proceeded to shoplift various items She considered crucial for her survival.

Orchestral articulation Aligns escaping carbonation With antidepressants Shaken about Inside mouths Matching the orange From whence the bottle birthed.
