why_don't_you
gull why don’t you meddle with her words
even though they’re fine as they are?
you know you’ll only wind her up.
it’s almost as though you want to.

she put a lot of time into that
and you blew it down with such ease,
like the big bad wolf and the fragile
houses of the three little pigs.

you wicked monster.

you know the she didn’t read it once,
and twice could never be enough.
she read it a hundred times in her search
for the perfection that she‘ll never see.

those beautiful words that you jumbled up...
you made her poor head spin when
you knew it was already spinning,
even though she said it wasn't.

you sick tease.

why don’t you show her your arrogance?
why you don’t you make her despise you?
now’s a great time to prove that you’re the
thoughtless bitch, you always said you are.

why don’t you send her to bed hating you?
send her to sleep thinkingbitchand wondering
why she even values you so much as a friend?
could you imagine why? i can’t imagine why.

you are a total nobody, after all.

stony silence or nineteen to the dozen?
there is an in between, you know.
you don’t have to have an opinion on everything
nor express them in the manner by which you do.

more soul, more heart, more emotion...
more salt in her wound, more like.
more uncertainty and worry and
insecurity and anxiety.

you condescending bitch.

it’s funny, because you can be so sweet
sometimes. so sweet it makes me proud.
but then you show the side
that even you confess to detesting.

you know that you hurt her,
and it hurts you to know it,
yet you still make the same mistakes
again and again. you just never learn.

you stupid, stubborn fool.

why don‘t you make her feel small
and insignificant and inferior?
why don’t you make her poor head
spin uncontrollably into a frenzy?

you just had to interfere, didn’t you?
you just couldn’t leave it alone.
you had to take it to the extreme,
like you always do.

you make me sick.

they should put you on a cross and crucify you.
(you know that she won’t like that allusion,
yet you still leave it there, flashing like a blue light,
even though you could go back a line and delete.)

you don’t delete though, you never do .
and it’s such a crying shame
because, if you did, maybe a lot of
headaches would never have been born.

you just don't get it.

i hope you’re happy with yourself now.
i hope you’re thinking about how much
of her precious time you’ve gobbled up.
and you weren’t even there to enjoy it.

hang your head in shame for having
such audacity, such impudence.
just one remark, three sentences at most...
the judge thinks you should get life for that.

you’re going down, darling.

they'll lock you up and throw away the key.
you're a menace to society, i'm afraid.
with your wicked tongue which you
use before you've thought what you're saying.

so, now i hate you. now you hate you.
now she hates you. now we all hate you.
so answer me one question:
why the hell would she want to live with you?

birdmad So earlier today there was something like close to 200,000 people at a rally whose destination point was just outside my office window.

Among these was a very small group of counter-demonstrators whose primary purpose seemed to be to proclaim -in as loud a tone as is possible from such a small cluster- that if nothing else, they are deathly afraid of brown people.

I stepped outside on my lunch break to truly appreciate the size and scope of the crowd when one of the redneck mouth-breathers shouts at me -- spotting the distinct brown-ness of my skin as i pass by his little clutch of dumbassery -- "why don't you go back where you came from"


So i got in his face and said

"What? The neighborhood just over by 35th Avenue and Southern?...I can't... I sold that house 2 years ago...and i can't go to Good Samaritan hospital since i'm not sick, they'd just send me back here to my office and i obviously can't go home right now because all of these people are blocking all of the ways i could take to get to the other side of the freeway

I wonder if he was more surprised that i answered him in English or that my command of the language is likely better than his.

Had i felt like it, i would have explained to him that my family's roots in this country are currently at least 4 consecutive generations deep and that otherwise, most of the branches of my ancestry except my maternal grandfather's either trace back crisscrossing the modern border again and again since the Spanish first set up shop on the North American mainland or date back to any number of Native populations from southern Mexico all the way up to Oklahoma since before Europeans even though of sailing out this way.

But i was busy, hungry, and knew i had already befuddled this poor jack-off's tiny brain, so i just left him standing there sputtering while he looked for a retort, finished my cheeseburger and got back to work.

Man, i love fucking with wingnuts
