Travel a Cheek to France in the Lapse,
a lathe for a buckle and the lace in the speak is International not this foundation of teach,
a Letter to Choice the Beens for the From as not too not all sew.
Threads to a Feature is L.Ron Hubbard be Crow,

May these be just examples of how Countries do fall,
hidden be blank and Hugh Meakin' for Strong,
strength in more than example,
a phone call to Hugh is a life that is saved from exportation, exploitation and that is not Kong.
It is not the Rock of Alcatraz,

Shear is the shy.knee and Mal is Serenity by the known,
for that is a move.ease be proof to communication not beer.
