Posted on January 27, 2016 By adcitlali

Gothic times

Posted on September 15, 2013 By adcitlali

Manipulative sadness         vivacious master of the grievance we wont damage fake       casual echo of a sassy duple in a resonant fugue A night-spread lavishly disturbing us Short  sparks  of vibrant violet light single vision fighting a vacuous exchange of psychedelic music A sky slathered with sumptuous darkness  Oscillatory…
