Break Out The China


Like an apple pie.
Carefully constructed.
A solid crust.
All the way up the sides.
And over the top.
Buttery, delicious, crunchy.
It must hold the filling.
The goodness within.
Tasty, sweet fruit.
Simmered and sugared.
Why the pie is.

Baked perfectly, to perfection.
Cooled a bit.
Announced alive and well.
Set aside some whipped up cream.
Near a coffee pot.
Break out the china.
But don't break it.
The silver silverware.
Everyone on their best behavior.
Pride.

Sharpest knife in the drawer.
Cut just right.
Piece by piece, each scrumptious.
Gone, the slices of attractions.
Eaten, the meetings of minds.
Tasted, the delights.
Anticipation no longer.
Keep it around.
It'll last for days.
Preserved in tin foil.

Sources Say 2: They Miss The Ink

  Related to manipulation abuse, but with a capitalistic twist.  They are paid by the manipulators and the victims of manipulation.  It's a winning business model until the walls come crumbling down on the street, until the curtains pull back.  You thought Oz was bad, at least they got you back to Kansas.  These journal jerks got nothing.

But that won't stop them from cheering on China, and for good reasons.  Ask the finance department.  Money's money, honey, and they got the name, the bull statue, the cufflinks.  They got smear jobs, insinuations, and an editorial board.  Somewhat mobbish, if the mob was a bunch of silly

Sources Say 5: The Fool's Century

  On the inside it's uglier than most can imagine.  Scandal, cover ups, hook ups, and pick-me-ups.  No telling what kinda narcotics float around, pill to pill, shot to shot, dose to dose, a pharmaceutical disaster.  Like Elvis without any music or Chuck Berry without any moves or Bruce Lee without any kicks or Speedy Gonzales without any speed.  Just dizzy, slurring pigment obsessed drunks, sources say. What does CBS stand for anyway?  Doesn't matter now, they've become irrelevant, a bleak reminder of last century.  The fool's century.  Duped and looped.  Now we know. We started in around the late 40's, picking fights, manipulation, sinister and crude.  Stealthy.  Spies with eyes in the skies.  Peace was never kept, it was invaded.  America was a TV show on CBS.
