Sit on a potato pan, Otis!
________Madam?

Mornings || they disperse || beyond || the corn
_________________Fields, || separately. ||Sunday

She || throws

Her partner’s computer || (midnight)
________Into the garage.|| George ||who
In many || a city || upgraded || his software

_______________Upgraded || hers.
They will || stop over || an island
_______Separately.|| Your son

________________Hated || all || mushrooms
George mentions – do you recall || yourself?
To a single mind,|| their spirits || evaporate
