Sucede/It happens
Sucede
No le cuesta nada sembrar la muerte envuelto en sentimientos cristianos. Cristo era hijo de un carpintero y no hijo de un Bush, me parece. O me parece mal y es dulce dicha la muerte envuelta en sentimientos cristianos. No es tema de meditación para los que van a caer. Ellos van a caer y no más. Prefiero ser gusano a ser Bush El prefiere ser Bush. Su vacío está lleno de mierda vieja. Un ave corta el cielo en dos. ¡Salud al ave con el invierno al hombro! ¡Salud a los que tejen un NO de aire en el aire! ¡De ellos será la forma humana, el viaje y la alma tibia! ¡Salud! ¡Salud!
It happens
It costs him nothing to spread death wrapped up in christian sentiments. Christ was a carpenter'son and not son of a Bush, or so I understand. Or do not understand and it is a sweat pleasure this death wrapped up in christian sentiments, For those who fall it is not something to meditate. They will fall and that's it. I would rather be a worm than Bush. He would rather be Bush. His emptiness fill with old shit. A bird cuts heaven in two. Hurrah for the bird with winter at its back! Hurrah for those who weave a NO of air in the air! For theirs is the human shape, the journey and the warm soul! Hurrah! Hurrah!
