This Is Uncle Max and This Is Aunt Thrax

STOP TO SINK ABOUT THIS What you don’t understand is that I understand those of you who don’t understand I fully and factually get the things you do with clarity and class The way I understand why you cook yourself simply to stay well tanned And I even get why you pray to a deity who says “go to church” and then kicks your ass What you don’t understand is that I don’t understand those who understand They know about quarks, black holes and deep outer space I don’t understand those who understood why, In Boston books should be banned And worse then that is then one night they burned books, which was a total disgrace What you don’t understand is that there are things about which I don’t want to understand I don’t get how greedy Americans just came along and stole some of Mexico I don’t understand intense facts like one country just stealing another country’s land And if you ask me I don’t understand the difference between gas from Shell or Texaco I do it to survive without food nor shelter so I understand crime but to make you understand that which I don’t understand and that which I do One must have a mind such as mine littered with glitter and eroded by time and of all the litany and lists I have that I don’t understand, that list begins with each one of you © 2011.…Phreepoetree ~free cee!~
