STARLIGHT RHYTM ORCHESTRA

I tell you the stars are memories, nothing but memories, and they are not yours. And you don’t own your memories and you don’t own you. You arenot even you, you are being born all the time – from the womb of memories, no less, pray look right and left and right again, as you cross the street. And such is the way of the human world.

Often fodder is put to no good use. The concentration of protein or carbohydrates is too high for the weight and position in the growth process, making the animals either pass more liquid stool, or grow more fat than sustainable by biology, a vital informtion in forced growth neglected by more than you would think, subsequently causing a more than unnecessary delay in upgrade to the next fodder group so as to try to adjust their mistakes – animals dehydrated or malnutrisioned with swollen livers and calcified veins. If you really want this shit industrial world of killing, the least you could do was do it properly. Admit that even you attend seminars for those sharing your interest in the buried art.

Admiration is okay.
