You.
I cannot explain.
42 is as good an explanation
As any
I feel.
I feel you,
It makes perfect sense
Without any understanding
Beyond what I feel,
When I feel
You.
It makes me happy,
Between two tears,
Un-cried,
And two screams,
Muffled
By the breeze of your hair.
You,
Are in me.
And I want,
I want
You
In the light,
So you can see
Me
While I crush a blueberry

The applicant’s nom de plume was not exactly subtle, if you know Polish. The middle initial and surname of the author, Anna O. Szust, mean “fraudster.” Her publications were fake and her degrees were fake. The book chapters she listed among her publications could not be found, but perhaps that should not have been a surprise because the book publishers were fake, too.

He left out $1.5 billion.A report this afternoon (01.05.2017) from the Wall Street Journal, however, revealed that Trump’s disclosure was the tip of the iceberg. The FEC required Trump only to report debt from entities he fully controls. The disclosure left out “more than $1.5 billion lent to partnerships that are 30%-owned by him.” That debt has been securitized and is owed to at least 150 financial entities.
