Giving a sensation of well being

Giving a sensation
of well being
a sensation of war seawater

being both a preventive
and a curative therapeutic concept
both personalised
and adapted to my needs

my needs my aches my pains
my pains my aches my needs

definitely miles from
the cold showers

you body could be ideal for me

And when it's over

And when it's over
over and over there
all over

when it's over
over and over

when it's over
walk out into
the landscapes
open every day

except Sunday

when it's over
over and over

Wrestling is the natural way of fighting in this county

Wrestling is the natural way of fighting in this county - as boxing is too quick and requires much thinking and concentration.

I have stopped eating turbot, river eel, tainted toothpaste, pet food, toxic toys and defective wires

I have no idea what we can and cannot eat nowadays, I only know there is less and less safe food for us to eat, I only know scores of people died of malnutrition, I only know I have stopped eating turbot, river eel, tainted toothpaste, pet food, toxic toys and defective wires.

It is real, but perhaps I am nothing more than a legend, a refrain, a scandal: coastal regions, after all, are also home to the biggest monsters, and, after all, perhaps I am nothing more than a monster.

A pirate.

I have no idea what creatures like me can and cannot eat nowadays, but I am said to organize expeditions to try to find humans, I am said to cut off their heads and consume them. Score of people died of malnutrition but all accounts agree that I killed at least 100 people, that I am treated with antibiotics to keep me alive, that I am tall, that I emit a strong, a disgusting odor, an odor of rotten eggs and pollution which act like pirates.

Like monsters.

You have no idea what a monster like me can and cannot be, you only know there is still an awful lot of room out there for a large beast to be roaming around and that you are become safe food.

If Venus has hidden feelings, if Saturn is true, their close friendship takes an unexpected turn as the week ends

You might wonder just how much you have in common with this life, with your life, one life, just a tricky situation, you might wonder just how much you have in common with your ruler Saturn and glamorous, romantic Venus. But concentrate on them: important changes that you could not have foreseen are now at hand.

Monday’s meeting between Saturn and Venus suggests that they are in a very strong position, their feet on solid ground, in the area of your skies, this meeting suggests their recent friendship enters a new phase this week. If Venus is confident, if Saturn is ambitious, if Venus has hidden feelings, if Saturn is true, their close friendship takes an unexpected turn as the week ends, an unexpected phase, a more secure and stable happiness.

So, do not be afraid to let down your defences, do not be strongly stressed, do not be afraid to stand alone: Monday’s meeting between serious Saturn and creative, romantic Venus, this meeting has the stars behind it.
