   I couldn't stand him.   
   Probably due to his sentences   
   that go on for pages.   
   Once I spoke for many minutes   
   without finishing one sentence.   
   I was dead drunk, of course.   
   If you really try to capture   
   the reality in one sentence,   
   you would be talking one sentence   
   for all your life.
