In Menawa's Day


What this place needs is a good, solid tropical depression.  Clear out the ice cream places, stand apart, keep your minds about you. 

Quit freaking out.  Lay back, chill, eat fish slowly, casually.  

Buy your own booze, and keep it down after 11.  So much wind here, gale force, knock you down wind.  

Orange groves froze hard for good in '25, after a quarter century of prosperous juice business.  Took another quarter century to get a paved road, electricity, and telephone service.  

Not til after WWII.

The Creeks were robbed by McIntosh, also known as Hutkee.  A greedy bastard who signed fake treaties for land and cash, who kidnapped, who sold people, who was bribed, who bribed, who was a particularly pitiful human.  

Who brought misery on his peaceful nation.  Who eventually died at 50 while escaping from his burning plantation home.  

Outside, waited a few hundred Red Stick Law Menders delivering his sentence for unauthorized treaty activities.  Each took an arrow shot.  

Tough way to go, but everyone makes choices.  Everyone contributes to their own demise.

Justice in Menawa's day.

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.

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. Even a few of my sources have moved on, the wreck has left the place dim and disgruntled.  Evidently, what's-her-name stormed out of a staff meeting in tears, mumbling something about pills and booze and karaoke night.  Guess it didn't go well.  Everyone laughed at her when she left the room, seems a real toxic work environment.  They miss the ink. 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.  Somew...
