When do we burn down the hot dog stands?
And give the wieners to the people
The cereal in the wieners is not available to the people of India
Instead you give it to your dogs you drag around here miserably
Are you sick of
The death of fourth avenue?
The death of love?
The death of the automobile?
The death of hominids
I stand here as an anti-hominid
I wish you all death
And the Pointed Sticks
