thinking as not to offend the imbeciles <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who said that Stan <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I should know<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In certain ways it is happening today <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One cannot use certain words <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or really question the people who consider <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider what <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That two and two make five <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is absurd <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is like the idiots who think that there are more than two genders or that the world is flat <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a man <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You are a woman <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That cat is a cat <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That dog is a dog <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is all very simple <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a way that is what makes me different to the average man of the street <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In what way <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I  can see and appreciate the simplicity of things <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is harder than you think <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lot of the shit that you hear these days comes from the so called academics <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who sit in their ivory towers <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And sow the malignancy into impressionable minds <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just look at the people who protest they are all kids <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What about the climate people they are middle aged <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They are just sad with empty lives and have grown tired of masturbation <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Can one grow tired of masturbation Stan <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I suppose one can get tired of anything <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stan this is a silly conversation <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are on a train and are visiting the country cottage we wish to buy <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Things are working out for us <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It makes me very happy <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is enough for me Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was told that Edward Thomas wrote a famous poem near here <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes Adlestrop <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is about a railway station but is also about beauty appearing where and when you least expect it <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His train made an unscheduled stop at Adlestrop and in a way it paved the way for an experience that was a life long memory<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shall we visit the station later in the summer if I am not too big <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We cannot <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because it was closed down some years ago<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How sad <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes but I believe that the station name board still survives in a bus shelter <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our station is not far away Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is very warm out there <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shall we grab a cup of tea before we visit the cottage <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That will be nice as we have plenty of time <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later when we are sleepy on our return journey will you read me Edward&#8217;s poem <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It will be a pleasure Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a train reading a wonderful poem opposite a beautiful woman who is heavy with child<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What could be better <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To live in this area as I have fallen in love with it already <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
