ESSEX CHANEL

laid like a camel's tongue on the desert your cracker-sized life raft settles down like a garden satyr that you might see move if only you were immortal enough- in the meantime you can rent your life raft out as a landing strip for fairies who want to check out this boredom they keep reading about.
