hoagies are colonialism the phone told her or was it cheeseburgers or imperialism? either way, he doesn't get em anymore. "it's my batphone" that's what guys used to say (big brick in a sports car) private lines and that. now? buddy privacy is unprofitable i'm a walking focus group (if you ask me) i'll tell you what i think. hang on a a a quick a a a a quick minute? i'm going to the bathroom to tap star ratings for the latest films! i stopped eating pork because of Haile Selassie and my immortal soul and irritable bowels. somewhere in the Congo a middle aged man is swinging a pick axe for the 20th year in a row. his ancestors used the ore to create beautiful blue hues; beautiful enough to build an empire. now it produces the blue light that seizes our children. the lamb is no longer ours. the lamb belongs to the mines. i know a tattooist who went to Vietnam at age 19 because he didn't want to wait and end up drafted at age 25. (ripping off a band-aid) he can't hear so good now. i didn't ask him how many men he killed, he volunteered that none of them deserved it. "we wanted them to have a fridge and a color tv, but they didn't want that shit. we didn't ask them. and now look at us, bleeding out for Westinghouse." the past is blood and ink, but the future is in al-Khidr.
