When I hear the radio announcer Say As I wake from a late afternoon Nap That this boat sank And that plane crashed And half survived And half didn't And I know half of these families weep And the other half cry I glimpse the nothingness of it all Something like I felt when my uncle Aron Dropped 23 floors And splattered And I just couldn't For the life of me Imagine That my Uncle Aron Experienced anything more Than solid blackness And with this pit of despair I walked to the bathroom To pee And so only Imaginative scenes Of women sucking me off Relieve some of this Unwholesome bitterness.

When I hear the radio announcer
Say
As I wake from a late afternoon
Nap
That this boat sank
And that plane crashed
And half survived
And half didn't
And I know half of these families weep
And the other half cry
I glimpse the nothingness of it all
Something like I felt when my uncle Aron
Dropped 23 floors
And splattered
And I just couldn't
For the life of me
Imagine
That my Uncle Aron
Experienced anything more
Than solid blackness
And with this pit of despair
I walked to the bathroom
To pee
And so only
Imaginative scenes
Of women sucking me off
Relieve some of this
Unwholesome bitterness.
