I heard...
I heard the other day
something that is
preposterous and
poignant.
To "feed me shit and call
it Caviar".
Just a tremendous insight into our fraud.
Don't know who said this. It rattled me like a cold, German night.
Just full of fact and unreasonable clarity.
But to expect any more
would be a tragedy.
Welcome shit,
welcome caviar.
I heard this.
