Divided into Instant Soup

Post by fishfishquaileye »

I can't bare the strain
of another's pain
when I comes in from rain
and same old refrain
"what's for dinner?" again
back shoots the reply
"it's Instant Soup"
I ask
"when will it be ready"
she replies
"the clue is in the item description!"
"how do I know how what unit of time soup is"
and I smash her
over the head
for her irritating pedantry
"oh fuck you, Instant Soup
you think you are so special
with your can-do
phioso
phy
of life.
I hate you Instant Soup
I cry into my caviar.

THE END? (WHO CNA SAY?)

.. you know, fish, I'm thinking that you may well have quit the junk finally, since this seems to be one of your more coherent efforts of late. Now, content-wise, when you were smashing her over the head, it's interesting you exclaimed "oh fuck you, Instant Soup".. as opposed to.. oh, I don't know: "oh, damn you, woman!".. [I mean, that's a classic, after all]

.. actually, fish.. I know it was no doubt that of another fish alter, as it were.. [when this same subject had come up].. but it seems we're back to "the man who mistook his wife for a hat" routine.. only, here the man mistook her for instant soup. [for some reason] [oh, that's right, to go with your rhyme scheme of: strain, pain, rain, refrain, again...... instant soup]

[there should DEFINITELY be a sound effect here............................ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZewrXwW ... re=related

[now, that's my kind of professor]

.. oh, also, fish.. [getting back down to business here].. once again, we have the by now familiar theme introduced by my conviction that it is, in fact, alphabet soup we're talking about here. [you know, given the pedantry involved]

[here I think should just be the sound of fish gargling] [not sure why]

.. oh, and the surprise switch at the end is quite nice, by the way. [CNA being my favorite charity as well] [??]

[just a cah-thunk sound, I should think] [or, no, maybe it should be the Nutty Professor with no sound at all] [I mean, I've put fish through enough, I think] [I mean, for just one lousy instant soup poem]

.. no, but seriously, folks.. this poor man's crying into his "caviar" was a nice about-face there, and so, I do think we owe fish a few extra-dextra creditie points on that one. [since, yes, we're keeping score]

.. so that's 2 points: fish

.. and about a million-jillion points: moi.


.. alright so.. let's consider a moment what we've learned from all of this


Signed,

Dr. V.D. Flowers III.. [I mean, as if the V.D. part weren't enough] [oh, I mean, the Ph.D. part] [I got confused for a minute, there]
