i want to go to lake baikal. i want to drink its cleansing waters after party in irkutsk. kurbat ivanov reinvented. kurbat ivanov reinvented. buryatskaya sovjet - ger city baby! oirat moving through - assimilated! slav grab one seven two seven. sable trade! sable trade! sable trade! sable trade! i want to go to lake baikal, i want railroad monotony. middle class isolation. meet some daddy's prince or princess. vodka breakfast, middle class isolation. transport tycoon on laptop. i want to go to lake baikal. meet you on the platform, 2018? 2018. 2018! i want to go to lake baikal (etc.)

reinvent wash away - one hour bath sacrosant. back to the fray. back in `91. reinvent make it up. take your pick different speech. different people graded teeth - boot under boot, itch to scratch! reinvent pay no dues, build your walls expelled from cities. reinvent but celebrate. social war! and if the soldiers come home, and if the soldiers come home, and if their tongues are true? give italia their papers or sleep with statues for now? sleep with statues for now? the younger lashes out with his razor tongue - sleep with statues for now? give me these powers and i swear to return them. social war! social war! give me these powers and i swear to return them. social war! social war! now sleep, six at the gates, seventh seat in anger. meet and greet - he lost his mind in the city.

back when inames had ipower: vollum vollum vollum 14578. eighty sheep were taken to the island and bombs filled with anthrax spores were detonated at positions where selected groups were tethered. one sequence shows detonation of an anthrax bomb fixed at the end of a tall pole supported with guy ropes. when bomb is detonated a brownish aerosol cloud drifts toward target animals. a later sequence shows anthrax-infected sheep carcasses being burned in incinerators following conclusion of experiment. 1981 soil in sealed packages for the conservative party: operation dark harvest. if death occurs, body should be isolated to prevent spread. burial does not kill anthrax spores. back when inames had ipower: vollum vollum vollum 14578.

hello sunshine! hello sunshine! hello sunshine pokes through rain. academic dust tongue rolling around mouth screech. where will it rest? over here? over there? anything goes - anything sticks screech. bowl of plastic apples - fake fruit of carnal knowledge - get them down your throat screech. get them down your throat screech. one for two of this swip swap three for two of that swip swap. one for two of this swip swap three for two of that swip swap. hello sunshine! hello sunshine! hello sunshine pokes through rain. for all foul words of phone and pen, the ugliest 'what might have been': observe ancient idiot caught in teenage tongue twist rabbit in eyelights. samizdat: do your own time, in your own time.

i find this new trend of analysis quite sad. i got the little german orange book when it first came out. knowing every pointed word took something away. on the rocks! on the rocks! shatter bay! transparent sand eyed man confides: `i read the first chapter of book and lost 35 years'. no white lies here i said `you lost more than that'. i said `you know you lost more than that'. transparent man in shatter house. sepia man: never a vice. opaque couple opened b'n'b. sold everything fled steel city. transparent man he stays for free! master bedroom never rented out: `we'll just sleep in the car'. opaque couple on the edge: the railway closed for good. but we can never return to steel city jazz scene! transparent man watched them toss and turn at night. sweat! sweat! shatter bay! transparent man in opaque house. sepia man: never a vice.

on the island: fishbone tools dry and brittle to the touch. my skin a salt cocoon. on the island it is all ok. on the island: enough driftwood for fires at night, and the stars fit any pattern that i want to see. on the island it is all ok. on the island. but i left for a while, and the island is not the same upon return, and the knife of your gaze is pure and is my favorite way of neglecting health and safety laws. and the island now laden with the ghosts of implausibility, the arms that gave me strength just bone-dry crooked trees. on the island it is all ok. a bright new day in monochrome. the island thanks you anyway! point out a feature and call it reason. it's as good a word as one could want. the island thanks you anyway. the sea has never looked so apologetic. the island thanks you anyway. the sea has never looked so apologetic. the sea has never looked so apologetic.
