A pic
Of a piece of French toast:
Whether at work—
Or driving a car—
Who cares if it's pointless,
Or even bizarre?
To build up a Wall,
Where, in time, you've enshrined
All the silly and saccharine slop
Of a slovenly mind?
Don't you know
If your teensiest thought
Isn't ever repressed,
The police
Will have probable cause
To effect an arrest?
But the world
Will be better for this:
That a man,
With a click of a mouse—
Or else
With a stroke of a stylus—,
Need not
Ever speak to his spouse!
