Nieprosek - Polish neologism from first three letters of the words in phrase "nieład prokreacyjno-seksualny" (procreative and sexual disarray, untidiness, clutter (something ugly, destroying harmony of creation)).

Nyaer - a cat. Word comes from Japanese word "nya" ("meow").

Mruczydełko - dimunitive of mruczydło which is somewhat humorous Polish word which means a cat.

Chodź, ciciusia, chodź - Polish phrase used to call a cat which contains second person singular verb from "chodzić" ("to walk", "to go") which occurs two times and affectionate word for a cat. I remember that or similar phrase being used by my grandmother to call a cat.

th*t = that ho over there, so being carried away by a th*t is much more physically involved than being carried away by a thought.

Louis Cyphere is not Frank Grimes.
I mean, Louis Cyphere is Knot, Frank Grimes.

Louis Cyphere, Frank Grimes and Knot are all aliases I've made music under.

Last morning i did lay in bed, i am often lay in bed in the early mornings.
But this morning I was dabbing a bit between the flannel sheets that the dislextic writing is not that bad at all. With the dislextic writing, I am going to link the alphabet fully automatically to unexplored ways of thinking, a sort of a astray route. A walking path which is not really a walking path, but gradually your own walking path arises. You just have to cross a bridge, but then a world opens up for you.

Sleep well in your alphabed :)

Alphabed - good pun!

Retazzoso - word formed by linking of words in phrase "reta z zoso" which comes from "ręta z zósó", which is gross misspelling of Polish phrase "Renta z ZUS-u" ("pension from ZUS (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych - Social Insurance Institution)"). Another variant of the pun might be rentazzoso.

Płydź - my Polish neologism with the same meaning as English word "filth".

Irat - lizard. Polish (quite augmentative) word for lizard is "jaszczur" and in Polish "ja" means "I" and "szczur" means "rat". Lizard is usually called "jaszczurka" in Polish, so the word "iratka" may be formed.
