Something I though about re: Sept 11 (depressing)
Okay... so this stinkin poem popped into my head... all I know is I had to memorize it in about grade 3 or 4.. it came into my head on Sept 11th... now I cant get it back out.. I cant remember what it's from... maybe someone else does... anyone else have a maniacal teacher that made them memorize stuff like this when you were just a little kid? ...
quote:
(from somewhere deep inside my brain)
Then out spake brave Horatius
the Captain of the gate,
"To every Man upon this Earth
Death cometh soon or late!
And how can Man die better,
than facing fearful odds
for the ashes of his fathers
and the temples of his Gods?"
Scary that I remembered that ... reading it makes me wonder why she made us learn that.. hmmm

I saw this carved on the shithouse wall while in outdoor school.
When I was young and had no sense,
I stuck my dick in an electric fence,
it curled my hair and tickled my balls,
and made me shit in my overalls.
The wierd shit that we remember, and that was from 20 years ago.

wow....I am looking deep in the archives...
don't tell my boss.
This is a deep poem. One question for Fish & Dave, what type of school did you both go to? That is a distrubing piece, I can't imagine the rest of the poem.
