As it Was in the Beginning (2/2)

slapdashmonuments

Inspiration hits with a flash, stories written on the go. A rumble of laughter and the tale is heard only in echoes. The wind blows me in a new direction. Whom shall I visit next?

Savvy confidence tricksters, like us, darling Master,

All have fingers so nimble and minds that are faster.

I got slapped for my effort. You yanked on my hair.

You stormed that we're over, as if I loved you

I'll take that, Master Nobody. Get in that hole,

And remain there, you rapist, you dastard, you fink

You are not worth my spit--Swallow poison now. DRINK!

And you'll hear me exclaim, driving off in the night,

"God is back in her heaven; and ev'rything's right--

"Let this slab be your blanket, my teacher, you shite!"
