must be catching old folks' forgetfulnessPansy's right about that

Aunt Pauline, all their friendsAnd Pa's brothers are the oldest of
allI'll just say hello and let them give me a nasty dry old man's
kiss on the cheek and buy my rosary and leave
There's no real call to see their wivesIf they cared about seeing
me, they would have done something about keeping up all these

more
variedNeatly labelled boxes and bolts of louis vuitton mahina bright fabrics filled
shelves to the ceiling; barrels of meals and flours were lined up along
