Spanner

Spanner ..

In the works …

Said spanner

Is I …

…

So only something biblical ..

Could …

But yep …

Biblical or extremely unlucky

So … I will let you decide if meant to be or not ..

Simply ran out of words …

Words over coffee is all I’m leaving out there at this point

Anything after that …

Depends on the former …

Can’t be doing stress any longer

Neither you can you I imagine

And yes I am very sorry but hardly had a choice… Random sequence of events, even by my standards …

Luck ….

Well I get all or nothing generally …. Maybe I get the chance to explain eventually …

Spanner …

Ms spanner .. my original words were meant for one only ….

The less pretty words a result of the fuckery that ensued …
