When Lotte is asked to find a Labour Leader’s Stasi file she suspects a modern-day version of Zersetzung, this time using social media to make up stories about the left. #ddrzeit #kruger #doxxing #theleft

A very British Coup, but this time with help of the German press and a future Labour Leader's Stasi file steinkrugpublications.co.uk

I let a vampire make love to me
Yes, that was somewhat rash
And take this as a warning
When the sun rises in the morning
The bed is covered in #ash

See there is a Picasso exhibition at the Tate Modern.
My wife said I would never cut it as an impressionist
She is laughing on the other side of her face now

She was an #advert for a quantum of misery.
Only the most skilled poet could translate into verse.
‘Smile,’ I told her, ‘Things can only get better.’
Then she smiled.
And everything seemed a lot worse.

Science fiction is the product of an #elastic mind
And just occasionally
A stretch of the imagination of a different kind

Hers was a tabloid existence
She reflected on what she #read in the Daily Mirror.
But then was burned by The Sun #vss365

Jane

She was Guardian
Of the #Oasis
May she rest in peace
In the Forest spaces
With the ones
She loved

She must be replaced,
With another
Who understands
Loves faces.
The sacred places
Of impermanence
And eternity.
Another champion,
Willing Guardian
Of this interstellar
Blue green
Oasis.

Her eyes were as blue as the sky reflected in the pool of water in that #oasis where we made love.
'I crossed the desert.' I said 'To show you I care.'
'I crossed the desert for you too.' She replied 'And have got sand in my underwear.' #vss365

Rory brought the mount to a halt amid the leaning palm trees of the #oasis, the creature fading away as Rory ran o the waters to collect the sample the alchemist needed to find out who had been poisoning the little lakes, and with what.

Lucky he didn’t need water to play the game.

In July 2023 I was beaten up and robbed outside Wembley Stadium. The police asked what I remembered and I told them everything was a #blur. They questioned Ticketmaster and members of a britpop band but no-one was charged. #vss365

Everytime I try to order this book I recieve a copy of Horticulture in Britain - something to do with my phone's spell checker.

Memories are merely stories we tell ourselves - consciousness a memory of what happened 250 milliseconds ago. So let's keep on looking for the car keys and stop arguing who had them last.
