Hot Ball Conga


HOT BALL CONGA

Wet girls huddle under a thick spruce
Squeals and screams
Summer soaker cloud burst
Streams of mascara 
Hair washed together
Clothing sticking to every body

July

Stay wet girls
Don't let that hot bald bone
Dry you 
Fry you
Evaporate into the sky you

Emerse yourselves in 
Bodies of water
Lakes, pools
Oceans, bubble baths

Keep the boys thirsty
For your moisture
Beach the boys
Like whales
With your bikinis

Strand them in the sand
Make them understand
The wet wild nature child
Who lightning tickles
And thunder claps
With each smack
Of your lips

SUMMER CLOCK

The serious business of fun
Pursued for its own sake
By boys who worship the Sun
And open space

In full command of agenda
Big boys propose
And hotly debate

Little boys craving inclusion
Follow arguments
And weigh their fate

They want to be big boys
Big boys want to be men
And men just want to be
Boys again

Days without hours
Only sunrise and set
Hold off September
Back to school again

Catholic Bishops Claim Abortion Funding Denies Church Molestation Candidates


The US Conference of Catholic Bishops said that the ORomney Health Insurance Bailout Bill in providing funding for abortions and birth control will deny future generations of priests and deacons potential candidates for molestation which has been a cornerstone of recruitment and bonding within the order for the past four decades. 

"Why do you think the Bishops and Cardinals would risk such scandal in covering up the marauding molestation decade after decade if it wasn't vital to the survival of the church. Studies show that despite strong abomination and threats of hell even Catholics are getting abortions or practicing birth control when it is covered by their health care insurance," said Arch Bishop Feeley of Jefferson City, Missouri. "Do you really expect young men to hear the calling when there is only a handful of widows and cleaning ladies in the pews?"

Parish school students are far and away the preferred victims due to access and fetish uniforms. Despite their reputation for academics and discipline primary and secondary Catholic school enrollment which peaked in the early 60's at over five million is less than half that and schools have been closing. The increased costs of having a lay faculty, changing demographics and a shrinking portion of the faithful willing to have their children raped has caused tuition to soar out of the reach of many Catholic households.

"The unwanted or barely wanted children that abortion and birth control claims were our best targets." explains Monseigneur Kitchtaw, who has been accused of improper relations with students since 1965. "You can't even look at a kid whose parents spent four years at fertilization clinics to produce. A hair out of place on the child's head and they're in your office questioning your ethics."

Enough Of This Shia



Seeing his slim lead over Mitt Romney in the polls disappear President Obama has contacted Russian President Vladimir Putin and proposed restarting the Cold War as a way to consolidate power and jump start the economies in both countries. The new Cold War or Cold War 2 will be limited to arming proxies in the Syrian Civil War and other Middle East countries as the Arab Spring collapses into anarchy. 

"The only way out of the Great Depression was World War 2 and the only way out of the Great Recession is Cold War 2," the president explained in his weekly radio address. "There is no better stimulus than war and this way we can override Republican spending restraints and create high paying defense industry jobs."

"Europe will be in the same economic shape it was in 1945 by the end of the summer so this is our best opportunity to regain free world dominance."

"Americans don't mind being broke if we're killing enough people." said Defense Secretary Leon Panetta. "And with the wind downs in Iraq and Afghanistan I don't think we can target anywhere near the amount of terrorists we'd need to satiate the American lust for blood."

"Sure, if we hit Iran who the Russians are also backing we'd have Cold War 2 anyway," Panetta explained. "But even should we be that lucky why not get the dogs and cogs of war up to speed with a wider massacre in Syria?"

House Speaker Boehner protested.

"Russia isn't big enough since the collapse of the Soviet Union. We should war with China in Africa where there will be less disruption to our oil supplies. Beijing is our real rival and they look different from most of us which always helps."

Rep. Ron Paul has other ideas.

"I'm tired of fighting other countries by proxy or boot. Why not keep our money home and fight an American Civil War 2? We already fund our security and police forces so arming the poor and illegal immigrants will create a conflict we can't lose. It will destroy the oversupply of housing while providing valuable work experience to our kids coming out of school with no job prospects."

Handshakes Are The New Blow Jobs


Amish communities like the states before the ratification of the Constitution enjoy sovereignty and make their own rules. One rule that seems to be universal among them is a distant relationship with telephones. The Amish use pay phones but will not have one in their homes. The reason? If someone can call you they are less likely to come visit. 

How right they are. 

It amazes me that we refer to cell phoning, texting and twittering as connectedness when what they really are is distance. People did not often write letters to someone they could see face to face. Love letters were a special case. They materialized intimacy, allowed the writer time and space to find the words to express emotions intelligibly, and substituted for physical proximity in the forbidden hours of candle light. Most of all they showed effort and the commitment that putting it in writing suggests.

Now we collect "friends" on websites, share thoughts that sound like advertising jingles and flex our genitals fancying ourselves the masters of our nutshell universe. And we are right.

For all our time saving devices we no longer seem to have time to actually go and see and interact with people. We don't have time because we are slaves to our technology. I have to check my messages, read my texts, emails, tweets, catch my shows, listen to my Itunes. We do this sitting at home or in a public space like parks and Starbucks. Turning to the person next to you and saying Hi is becoming unimaginable. 

Early evenings in the park I see parents still in their business garb pushing their toddler along while their face is buried in their Blackberry. Quality time.

 So we watch human beings share a space and interact supposedly spontaneously and this we call a reality show. Of course it must be some sort of absurd contest. You can't have people together that's incestuous. We must vote or kill them off one by one. There can only be one winner while the rest are obviously losers.

We're all losers. We're losing the sense of being co-workers, neighbors and fellow citizens. We network with people rather than really getting to know them.  Perhaps our mobility assured this. Few want to live in the old neighborhood. They want better. Companies have no problem shuffling employees around the country. Children grow up with little sense of permanence and home. We don't even watch the same TV shows or read the same news. Everything is niche.

Tellingly, the vast majority of tweets and texts are where I am right now. Why? Because we are nowhere.

Obama QB



The National Football League New York Jets in their ever expanding effort to match the New England Patriots have picked up President Barack Obama as their Monday Night quarterback in the closing days of free agency.

Coach Rex Ryan:
"Obama has to be the best Monday morning quarterback in the country. He's right on top of every crisis that should have never happened in the first place. Whether it's the constitutional crisis of his health insurance bill, the continuing multi-trillion dollar crap shoot the banks are running, the doomsday deficit deadline or the rights of soccer fans to marry he really gives it his all after he drops the ball."

"We're going to try him out to see if he can bring that brilliant indecision to the Monday Night game."

"We like his spin moves, his calm in the huddle, his poise behind center and his unshakable optimism. We have two quarterbacks who are all too quick to make decisions and end up throwing way too many interceptions. Obama will either hand the ball off or hold it till he's sacked. The punter's job will never be in jeopardy."

"We're hoping he'll confuse defenses like he's confused the Republicans who keep expecting him to propose something." 

This will be Obama's second stint with the NY Jets after his disappointing tenure last season as offensive coordinator.

"Yeah, we tried handing the play calling to big O last season but he stayed up in the booth and kept asking Sanchez what he thought might work. I don't mind his deferring to the eyes on the field but a couple of times he complained that our opponent's defense might not go for it."
