it was the same old morning. my kid
making my world go round,
despite the historic rocket-launch
by mr. mike hughes, somewhere in a
california’s desert-strip ,
to prove mother earth is a humble pancake.
sipping a cup of tea, i was
listening to ice cube and reading
steven pinker’s new book,
that looks like a fat juicy pulp-fiction
by its cover. dude started a chapter
with a quote by barack obama, which
was just about to throw me into an
inaudible swearing-fit; and my wife said,
at least listen to some god-hymns in the
morning for god’s sake!
i said, i would dear, if gangsta rap made me do it.
