I saw you in the park
I wanted to be your friend
I tunnelled my snout
Up your non-barking end

Here is a new poem i just wrote, called "old black salted bean".
It is one of a sequence- a very long sequence- of poems illustrating, from the
classic school, the fundemental relationships and importance of beans and our
everyday lives. Indeed, on our very lives, in general, every day. I will
shortly begin posting the sequence in its entirety, concluding with my
epic work- the seven ages of bean.
Though many of you may have already seen much of this preambular sequence, in
all over 666 verses- and growing.
To you, of course, I say: given the recent meteoric growth of the list, and
given, as i have, the impression of their true worth and subgeaneality, i know
you'll be delighted to see them all posted again. Please do not be remiss with
your analysis, your further input, and verse from your own personal soul(s).
For the rest, herein begins your true education!
A love offering from me, of me, of true SLACK.
It begins.
"old black salted bean" - a poem by Rev. Willie "beanguts" MacAdamia
when first i was revealed the old bean
it stung
how i howled against the fibre
old black salted bean!
so rotten!
listen for only once will i speak thus
its intonation a detonation i thought it was my glands
imploding what had it said
oh the horror
had i missed it only an instant past
i was drained pounding my hollow 10 ton feet down the empty corridores of
eternity
pay attention for what i say is known to me alone and
i will soon parish this i know
i heard about the seven ages of bean
"Bob"
chilkat
how can i use this
yet as i listened an idea
what care i for this knowledge to me my master is more a condiment
what did he say?!
so shrivelled so puny this fermented soy bean
not even a true black bean
what did he say?!
i can smell it! perfect! it would be perfect just what i needed
on it went i heard nothing but i imaged the bite
the sensual influx
bean, silence in my maw
a shreik like a thousand madrake
the echo sounds still through my hollow feet
damn
will there ever be another bean so grand
chaty fellow
old black salted bean!

exercise - your body needs it
exercise is yours for free
exercise your right to protest
exercise your doggie

Thanks, I am forwarding this to the system manager's mailing list
to give them ideas for their Threatening Form Letters. When you
can flame someone slackfully, you are obviously ... one of the
lowlife CON biologists who have been secretly growing Yeti brain
cells in one of those damned look-alike basement labs at MIT!!!
Watch your next batch of 'frop for ... impurities, you heathen.

I *hate* when that happens.
