The Poorest Tobacco making popular,
For it parting with hard earned chinks
And its service enjoying with blinks;
Beer not his proclaimed Brand
Still finds its way into his hand;
To its bringer...

We Murder Children in AmericaI suppose one of the most awful parts
Of the annual American tradition

In composite cycles
I react...

Nanoseconds of thought, interact...
Spun perceptions like spiders...

Regardless of the brew.
