			<title>tilting planet</title>
			<description>Do you find it silly thatI order chocolate milk instead of wine?When we go out fine-dining,I get all the sweet things,Nothing a true woman would buy.I wear your sweater in my sleep,So your smell translates into my dreams.My hands are small next to yours,And I feel so much like a kid..</description>

			<description>I like to think of myself as a sketch, but i know i am morelike a mirage. Instead of bold, dark strokes, i am shivering, shifting lines of violet and cerulean.
