Re: [Cz-L] insomnia

  With so many somnabulists it starts being crowded on the
   streets of nightly Czernowitz.
     Yesternight as I took my usual nocturnal walk on the Cz
   streets , down the Hauptstrasse I could see a shadow sneaking
    by , making it for the Oberjudengasse. Now I know
    who it was.
      And then on the Siebenburgerstrasse by the school ,
     by the school No 18 , who is that little kid trying to get in ?
      It is no longer safe to nightwalk the streets of Czernowitz.
        Soon well have a trafic jam.
