List XXII

Despite protests
from
"blogging dens
of resistance"
a stuffed
monkey toy
called "The Sock
Obama"
will be sold
online

Quit
touching
the top
of
my head

"Even our
dogs and cats
have learned
that elections
matter"

"Joining
together
in
spontaneous
'Cloud Nine
Clusters'"

Make it
stop
raining

They
whisper
about how
delicious
they are

Please
come running
to me when
Meadowhall
and
Anfield
are overrun
by a
malevolent
army of
squirrels

Turn on
the bathtub
spigot
and
quit looking
at me

"Well, it's
just
a harmless
non-racist
joke
and
liberals
are the
real
racists
or something"

It was
only
a matter
of time
