church splinken i left hyde park to take a picture of st. mary's cathedral. then i thought to myself, "hey. i want to be in there". and then i suspected that the thought didn't come from me, that it came from somewhere else. so i don't know what to make of that. not yet, anyway. 010522 ... fallen this is my church......would you lie on my altar? 010522 ... namae Too big, people can't see behind it.
