Actually I thinks it is funny and it is almost Pynchon related. Hey,
the best part is, he didn't say I was involved with some other
P-lister's anus. I think this is the first time he has managed not to
include that ad hominem tactic in a post is quite some time.
A radical liberal from the coast
(was also an aggressive milquetoast)
declared with conviction,
"Life is all Pynchon's fiction!"
so we gave him some tea and some toast
We gave him Hamlet and toast
He loved melted shit on his toast
But when the toast saw the shit
And screamed with a fit
That looks like my father's ghost
we gave him some tea and some butter
put him in the black hole of Calcutta
where he learned a very slick trick
he softened his bung hole with butter
and inserted his very own prick
he'd learn it not for gold
nor to quench his thirst for pelf
but simply because he'd been told
To go and fuck himself.
