WHILE THE BOY TOOK A BONE A Lust Story A Tribute to Gertrude Stein

While the boy took a bone. It only matters that the boy took a bone. As the boy took of a bone, a lust story.

While and during, and during or while, and during or, or while the boy took. While, but not before, and, or during or while the boy took the bone, and the boy took of the bone, a lust story.

In, not before, not before but in. In the moment before, before it was in. In in and around, but never before, but never before it was in.

Taking it in was the boy with his bone. The bone never took to taking it in. To take or to took or even to tooking, to take the took like never before taking the boy with his bone was taking it in.

It had to go. To go it had to, and before it went it had to go. And, and to go before, before it had to go, all the while knowing it was time to go, but to go while knowing, and knowing when to go, before knowing. To know to go without knowing.

Feeling it as have felt it or to feeling the feeling the feeling to feel, and feel or feel the feeling is what it is like to have felt it.

While the boy took the bone, having felt the feeling, while the boy took a bone, a lust story. A lust story, while the boy took a bone, a lust story.

Relax to relax, and to relax, relax or relax. To, and, to relax to relax while relaxing relax. After having relaxed, relax is to be relaxing.

And after, not before, and sometimes during while, but never before. Only during or after the boy took a bone. The boy took a bone, a lust story.
