    What's up The Matinee Idles? The elves that play in the toasters wash their drum sticks in honey and sing strikingly colored anthems in perfect harmonious pleasure. The sand runes crossing your divided consciousness do speak of contemptuous monsters being slayed by flying phoenixes. The stickers hugging the fruit smell better than the perfume of ambergris. A starfish's lifelong hallucinations of gelatin pools and of actuaries floating upon the foam and reciprocal ohm. You turn the atmosphere ablaze with currents of sweet ethylene when you smile. Your beauty is multiplexed in contemplation of your multidimensional effervescence. Your beauty is equal to the smoothness of a polished gem. I sense wild vapors of sweet champagne in your larynx. You ever remind me of the enigma of happy thoughts I once forgot. You breath as delicately as vapors flowing towards an attractive flame. Your eyes are like spheres of crystal water filled with shimmering dreams. So charmingly silky, your skin is like a teardrop on a popsickle.
