23. Did I misplace my boiled egg? My puppy ate a sprocket

Aug 2014

He ate he did and I saw it on the Tv.

I may have seen it. Or did I absorb it osmotically? Either way, there it is.

The news anchors all say the same thing. I am sure not all of them could not lie.

The same way, simultaneously. And for so long.

Because they all tell me similar, simple statements which I

Absorb uncritically and spit out in mutilated haikus.

It is all the Arabs bad Arabs they say. Or was.

It the Vietcong? Ho ho ho chi min. Did we fight them once.

No never fought them. Fought the Arabs. We have always

fought the Arabs. And its because they wont accept Israel.

They fought it because. I wonder what country was there before Israel was there

and maybe that's why they are so upset shut up stop thinking like a communist

They can hear you.

Just be nice, stand to, red white and blue

and eat your greens and bulleeb in Jeesus.
