It's the all new rose wisp
anal disc- turns your farts to flowers.
She'll say you shouldn't have;
that they smell lovely!
But wait! There's more!
Imagine the look when she hears
the built in butt whistle
that makes farts sing!
Treat their noses!
Why pass gas
when you can give roses ?!
R-WAD is your wad!
not sold in stores only available on line get a free butt whistle when you buy three or more may cause bloating gas internal irritation hash marks and urge to fart recklessly..

According to the words of Jesus, son
of that most prudent scholar Sirach, wine
is just as good as life to humankind,
having been made by God for honest fun.
Yet in all this, the Hasmonean sage
was not original: both Solomon,
the righteous king most cosmopolitan,
and his precursor David ever waged
a war against sobriety untempered
by cups of red or shots of white distilled:
the former, that the dying must be filled
as such; the latter, how the holy shepherd
is worthy to be praised by making glad,
with Martell Cordon Bleu, you and the lads!

I'd use the same tag for all three reveals, but the system doesn't process them the way [I think] it should
. No accounting for programming - it's like the way Russian uses double (or more) negatives as intensifiers while English (formally) flips sense with each one.

I love BHP
and the mining industry.
It ain't PHP
Django or Flask,
but shuffling through snow in Alask-
an winters. No matter how cold
we dig for copper with gold
byproducts. To hell with Nebrask-
an wheatfields, I say.
'Tis okay to be gay
for Cassius or Casca
in Athabasca
but not in Alaska.
Here, we are Caesar's men, and our Caesar is Trump!
We'll go through misery and pain
and make 'Murica poor again
to beggar the Chinese.
The shopping aisles and hospitals
are empty. I cannot buy knees
but cheese
is ok - lots of it.
The streets are unlit.
Fuck Ukraine,
God Bless Trump.
Say, what's that lump
you have in your head? A brain?
What is it?

I enjoy, affectively, certain spiritual paraphernalia
atmospherically-aesthetically
as I did TMNT and DC paraphernalia
as a child.
