Reading Smart
-Smartest guy I knew back then
accountant at our ad agency.
Never went to lunch he didn’t
hit a bookstore after.
Come back with two to five
paperbacks. That’s every freakin
working day!
Key to Nordic Philosophy!
I’m making that up, but
everything! Everything!
-But, so what? That’s book smart.
-No, it rubbed off.
-Good! Why are so many proud of
being dummies?
-They’re not proud. They’re ashamed.
The arrogant front is their very best cloak!
-More to be pitied than scorned.
-That’s an ancient old song.
-Hey! Can’t I come up with weird
deflections also? I’ve read books.
-Many?
-Can’t say that. They ramble so!
