Sto-lat

       his Polish heritage prefers it to where Polands gone since his grandparents crossed on steamers to the United States in the early 1900s

a song to celebrate birthdays wishing a hunred years of health and happiness 

That’s very cool, you’ve sung that to me since I've known you, though you've never said before what it means.

I only sing it to you on your birthday Happy birthday Whaelse woud I be wanting for you 

   I don’t know . . didn’t cross my mind until you explained

Howbout this 

               When was the last time you wished someone ill will 

In a song

Ill will?

Yahsure hexed them

Never.

Now thas an idea Grin be celebratory belt it out  I wish you ill will I wish you ill will day in an day out till the day you drop 

      Of course rendered in a Slavic languagecant be Frenchie or guttural German Mebbe Oriental Japanese Chinese Korean  Has to be translated be melodic enough so to pull it off with a smile on your face

That’s a little dark.

Oh come on  answer the question thas begged to be asked

Begged? What’s begging?

Is there someone you disliked enough to wish ill will 

                                                       An I mean truly   I havent 

Come on, you got plenty of political animus, how many times have I heard you go off during an interview on television or something you’re reading Eat shit or mutter fuck you.

I like mutter fuck youlike how you stumbled onto it  Id pluck an eye out of em before hexing someone Cant tell where witchy shit might come down Or the curve of space-time or the universe slings it back on you

Plucking an eye out wouldn’t come back on you.

Not ethereally unseen in the ether descending wrapping you suffocatingstrangling youya cant pull the hands from your throat or clear the thickening choking gauze mucus out of your throat

Jesus.

   Grimhuh

Yeah.

So as Ive said no I wouldnt wish ill will on anyone

                                                            You havent said

Well after your harangue, rant . . I wouldn’t even if it crossed my mind.

Yah Stick to good wishes an plucking out eyes  Im leaving em one Erasmus Proverb  From Adagia

Erasmus?

In regione caecorum rex est luscus  duhLatin

lets return to the worry some US government officials have expressed towards providing Ukraine with “money, guns and lawyers” fearing corruption failed transparency say three pages between McCarthy and his opponents that salted away his speakership

now the United States is expanding its presence in the Philippines huum  President Bongbong Marcos 

Why does that name sound familiar 

   AH his father kleptocrat was overthrown by the people and spirited away to Hawaii by America

so some worry Ukrainian corruption

any Philippines worries

                         where corruption under peaceful circumstances might be provided warm fertile soil for it to seed and spawn

I wanna see the Zen Sureha  The Zen-Venn diagram on that

Zen diagram? There’s no such thing.

There is now Ive named it isnt that wha people do best attach names to things create words Dictionary Encyclopedia Those texts are compendiums of words names They can spread out for a Zen-Venn diagram satori quietude through circles Oxford American Dictionary only has six pages of words under Z cant hurt to have a new entry to stretch Z

                                 Besides  I like its sound and look

So hocus pocus, it’s a thing?

Nah more like razzamatazz

                             Whenever I wonder if somethings a thing my daughter reminds me tha likely it is  Im runnin with tha

Tha said Canya draw tha for me  

Draw? excuse me  I’m drawing a blank on our point of departure.    

Clever

        Your point

   My point.

             Whawas my point?

An expert the expert

                      You prompted the diagram conversation

confusion shook his head more than he did

Dazed and confused

he nodded weakly

was time to put a bullet in his headput him out of his misery

Awright You said an expert is someone who knows more and more about less and less until his bobblehead went off he knew everything about nothing

Yes.  I did.

Draw it for me

A Zen-Venn diagram?

You remembered

Obviously more memorable than expert.
