13,143. DOWN AT THE FORT

DOWN AT THE FORT
The day was a speechless Heaven and 
I was glad for that. Some lady was
twirling spaghetti while I watched the
pizza-man, grave, go about his task.
-
There was a large TV on, behind me,
and a funny man in a black mask was
going on about Science. 'We must 
follow the Science,' he said. 'Just 
what we need,' I muttered, 'another 
senseless preachment from a fool
who knows nothing at all.'
-
Saying it is one thing, I guess. 
That's the easy part. Wee keep 
putting criminals in power; one 
jerk after the other. Follow Science? 
What's it got us now? A new sense
of failure, and a need for a God.
