Blind summit for
1 mile. Passive
oppression. Cash prizes

for disasters drowned
out. 'Once as
tragedy, once as

farce.' 'Tell that
to the other
clowns.' Fulfilled his

potential as a
shot man.

'So this is
what all the
fuss is about?'

A range of
attractive discounts. Had
limbs. Holiday attacks

destination. Must-have a-list
accessories. 'A new
coat of arms;

a new breach
of the peace.'

Sprawl economics learns
to keep schtum.
Recycled tombstones certainly

cut a swath.
Milk the outcome
for a long

age. Set the
meters to account.
'Music drowns dialogue'

out.

'Look: an attitude'
states T-shirt. Prison
wardens are all

lonesome. Thrown out
over allegations. To
fall scattered on

the tarmac. Over-
whelmed by sheer
outpouring. Too few

new nurses.

'What would you
have seen?' 'This
is your next

step.' Pupils before
missiles. Always the
available departure. 'The

blank space you
have given me.'
Sad slow time

on the nearby
layby. Repeats again:
best of - worst

of - on a
single branch.

'What is the
latest?' 'Just putting
it down.' Nothing

prepares. 'Kept too
long in state
approaching anxiety to

ever come back.'
'Values' thrown up.
Protesters attack fence

again and again.
