Diversion.

Seen here.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

The closest book was Fester BesterTester by Don Martin, Ed. Corno, Milan 1975.
Page 23 only has four words. These four words are "KRAKLE TEAR POUND SHRED". I would've posted the fifth word only, had there been any.
So i grabbed the second closest book: I Grandi Maestri Dell'Arte - Giorgione, Ed. L'Unità, Rome 2001. Page 23 just had a painting of moses.

Finally, i grabbed the book beneath that. Nicanor Parra - Antipoemas, Ed. Seix Barral, Barcelona 1972.
The fifth sentence of page 23 is in spanish: "La Ironía es la autodefensa del poeta que se sabe demasiado humano, que se sabe terrestre y mortal y vulnerable y solicitado por todos los abismos."
(Figure that out for yourselves)

Third time lucky, i guess.
