The Autobiography of Rose.
Rose could look at herself and when she saw herself and she
knew her name was Rose she could look at herself and not see that
her name is Rose. Oh yes she could. She could see that perhaps her
name was not Rose.
If
Rose was her name was Rose her nature.
She did not know the difference between Rose and Rose at least
she said she did not know the difference between Rose and Rose.
Nobody said.
Nobody does not make any difference in her name not being
Rose.
Rose is her name that is what she said.
The Autobiography of Rose.
It is taller to be taller.
Is it older to be oWer.
Is it younger to be younger.
Is it older to be older.
Is it taller to be taller.
The Autobiography of Rose.
A glass pen oh yes a glass pen.
Would Rose prefer a little dog named Pepe or a glass pen. A
glass pen does not write very well and a little dog named Pepe does
not allow himself to be caressed very well, so after all there is no choice
there is no choice between a little dog named Pepe and a glass pen
there is no choice for Rose because neither one she has not been
offered either oh no she has not been offered either one.
The autobiography of Rose who has not been offered either one.
If
she has not been offered either one what is her autobiography. Her
autobiography is not that she has not been offered either one. Indeed
not. Even if she has not.
And now everybody prepare.
Rose is to be offered one.
Which one.
Which one is Rose to be offered the glass pen or a little dog
named Pepe. Which one. This one. And which is this one. Ah which
is this one. That is the autobiography of Rose, which is this one.
The Autobiography of Rose.
When Rose was young she is young now but when Rose was
young. How young does Rose have to be to be young. She was young
she is young, she was very young she is young enough to be very
young, and she knows all about being young enough to be young.
How young do you have to be to be young. Seven years is old for a
dog but not old for Rose. Seven is not old for Rose but is it young.
