Why Skateboarding Is Illegal

a few years ago 
  
i was walking from my car 
  
to my apartment. 
  
around the corner, i heard a skateboard 
  
and sure enough, skateboy mcf*ckenstein 
  
comes plowing around the corner. 
  
the kid hit a rock or something and 
  
beefed all over the sidewalk. 
  
i approached him, and stated: 
  
"if you vote for george w. bush, 
  
he will molest your children." 
  
now, almost thirty years later, 
  
i am crouched beneath this mildew 
  
enshrined bungalow, 
  
curdling my teaspoons of 
  
tequila. 
  
if only skateboy mcf*ckenstein 
  
had listened. 








i don't think he was even old enough to vote. 

such is the cruelty of fate.
