Oliver S. Odo: "Backfriend my Friend" and it's analysis by E-CAF

             

Hello! Backfriend the sweet atter
You have been giving to me is
My life support to live longer
I want you to know that bitter
Is a medication for the unhealthy living
Hungry doesn't kill a free goat that
Dines from its enemy farmland.
