Opiate Bohrs

Raido Rafn 1984 (Sæby)

Free verse
o Death comes at equal cost extent
This is the World we live
These Thirteen Facts
States are not eternally
Every past flower quakes
What becomes known is
In 1848 forty thousand -
Pounds of harmfulness
Silver Spring
CRACKDOWN

    Thank you kindly. I am off course centered on the civilized tribes, the consolidation of crime in the US and the post-modern ascension of casino capitalism; the jeu monegasque in vitro. Interestingly silver serves silence - here's meme thinking it's gold

    An interesting take on the Opium Wars. Though, I must admit, I am curious about "These 13 Facts." It is not clear what you are referencing there. Is it referencing the beginning of the acceptance of communism as theorized by Marx?
