Where no tyranny is tolerable

It's easier for a camel
to go through the eye of a needle
than for a needle
to go through the eye of a camel.
It's the back that broke the camel's straw.
Do it to others before they do it to you.
Can't you tell I have nothing to write about?
Wouldn't a Winston taste good?
Remember the Metrical for lunch bunch?
The following program is brought to you in living color.
Remember Philips Milk of Magnesia,
that awful, stinking stuff?
I'm a proud member of FOP.
That's the Federation Of Over-developed Planets.
I take my med and go to bed.

Sometimes when we let ourselves travel from the past to the present, the best thing to do is just to go to bed... perchance to dream a better future for this over-developed planet.

Hi, Jaime.

Smiling at this--yesterday I turned off my television.

That's when I realized how noisy they actually are...

Enjoyed this much, an editorial of our culture. Very good, Jaime!

Aw, Jaime,

the memories you returned to me.

I would share them all...but I probably have
before now...

so suffice to say, I read this with a wry, but
wiser smile...and I thank you
for bringing back to me some things I had
left in memory.
