Taste In Everything
-We still pouring boiling coffee on him?
-His religion forbids in any form.
-That may be, but if you’re on the next shift,

Cautionary Tale
Do not take pill
2 hours before
or 4 hours after...
or is it the opposite?

what we do, especially torture.
I blog, a fart in a windstorm. But
