he muttered The Mall
mariachis jumped himthey remembered his
dream
I don think you can call it a mall
Last time you were in one was in Phoenix walking your father-in-law as
his physician recommendedkept him company
Ya remember when that was
After my wife died If I had to fix a year 2004
Twenty years ago
Easily
A legacy mall
Perhaps
I don think theyre trying to
compete with amusement parks that have inundated the country
Spend a cool grand or better on the family
for a weekend when they could have entertained themselves playing board games making
puzzles go on a local hike a Sunday ride a picnic
I imagine they put the weekend amusement parks on creditcards
Consumers owe more
than eighteen trillion
National debt
more than thirtyseven trillionChrist
Their decision
Our decision
to fly in from across the globe more than eight hundred top echelon military
leaders to listen to hourslong braying of an inept Secretary of Defense and the
lying sexual abuser thirtyfour-count felonNo
Theyre tryin to make ends make while
cut-off at the knees
Wealthiest country in the world
my ass Assortment of the wealthiest people in the world living in this country
Felons big beautiful bill Like the last
Trickledown
It aint money Its piss
Piss on peons
POP
goes the weasel
Weve spun off base
We have Think Ive stole second and third on you
Possibly
Ill call it a mall
Concede
We can
You walked against the current
towards the darkness where people were leaving
Some expressions indicated escaping
Id agree
Most were escaping
Felt like I was I was oddly
spawning
Had half a mind to keep a sharp eye out for hungry bears behind the occasional kiosks fashioned to brook customer
flow
Strategically
methinks
Yet you continued walking alone into the dimming light
Ja
Felt Id been there before knew the lay of the land It wasnt foreign to me
When I found myself in the darkest
recesses I discovered there were no entries
Not wha I remembered
Where did the people come from
Ive no idea
The furthur I entered
the dark the fewer to none there were
None in the
deepest recesses
Were they people
I don know They werent my concern
Bizarrely
The pitch black did not confuse me
Another labyrinth
