HOOKED BOWL IS A BROTH
built to add an anger
index witch seesaw
squinted shoulder hex
back off STD offered
highs & lows & toes &
why Wake the Silence
dusted Nose Red Noise
previous makes a Yak
Attack field Boy Pointed
bottom Grim Bonkers Set
strayed interior thigh blade
Typified warbly grovel bacon
Back is cyst & ossification
ganging quack shrinkage
smell that Covers Silicon
& greens the cob Spoke
SAND STORM HOLLOW WHIP
Lost tattoo toothpick realm
Seldom scar glorified nail
Once bitten Thrice high
gig a bit thought market
under valuable stapler haven
heaven Near a Bucket
spine lustful tingle
Ring that singularity
truck preventing twit
witticism provision laugh
a NightMare spare tire
mire wire sire liar
sun stroke strobe rope
neo logistician gulp
MARCH MARCH STARK
Wed said redesign
necessitating slab poison
Air Raided Invader
tank grass grin
an owl noticed sparks
giver Of The Shiver
asked a Fan to Split
clock Repacking Shellfish
wish as ish ish ish
amuck cluck buck
a tooth a Trench a Vlad
disappear Dear speak spot
