Topics might include politics, work, history, culture, war, a bit of theory, some sex, some drugs, some music and frequent tubthumping for the free association of producers.

Peacefully, yet cold, with the colours of nature and heart broken messages of love and memories at any of the thirty graves. read full story / add a comment
