I belong to the regulated

from: iduna

kari edwards

I belong to the regulated through the possibility of the water ways and stick-in zones, fixed-in contact with vast end materials. I belong to contact with the water that opposes wages -- that special water that opposes the vastness under control inside parenthesis within a parenthesis, a special last stick's worth three blinks in an eye hesitation. I belong to the possibility of the water that opposes the pole north zone material which is situated in my own faded facula. I belong to the regulated through a possible special last contractual agreement, soon to fixate on a material which is particularly inside that special last matriarchal vastness under control, a special not regulated through an all night taxi driver. I am the fixation that creates the taxi driver in a blink of space. I belong to the vastness under control inside, a special close escape ranking, which is a parenthesis conduit for possible super conductor conduit. I belong to the vast end material that floats down the water ways. I belong to the regulated in a vast parenthesis.
