Favorite Quote:
"Pull up a chair and sit on the floor, here's a new story you've heard before. One bright day in the middle of the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, pulled out their swords and shot each other. The deaf police man heard the noise, and saved the life of the two dead boys. If you don't believe this lie is true, ask the blind man who saw it too."

Oak tree so strong,
Yet very bizarre.
Stuck alone,
In a desert afar.
Why she's there?
No one will know.
I guess she never belonged,
In this desert afar.
