Pine Mouth: A Terrible Poem.

Posted on July 23rd, 2011
Everything bad comes from China:
elderly gambling addiction
Communism
a penchant for eating tiny birdlings and tiger gall bladders and endangered turtles
That leaves a bad taste in my mouth
I had a case of the so-called Pine Mouth
everything tasted bitter for days
even chocolate pudding
Pine Mouth from pine nuts
in my mouth
China is a horrible place that makes terrible things:
air pollution
bootlegs
China made the pine trees
that grew the pine nuts
that left a bad taste in my mouth
But I still like lo mein
