dreary senses wanted was motionless and eternal rest,

profoundly in your marvelously egalitarian heart,

If you yawn only to spuriously prove the dictionary definition of yawn; then you never yawn wholeheartedly; fanatically concentrating upon the degree curvature upto which your mouth opened; disastrously massacring the moment to savor your surreal laziness,

sceneries of the scintillating gorges ahead,

your exuberantly vivacious breath,
