For when they arrive, i shall not be less or more
than i am more or less! Moral-less, for your corporate jungle
has forced me above to the highest tree of disgrace, so
if it comes fist to rifle, then death on the stairs would i love!"

THE CRACKPOT HAGS, TO BAG MYSELF - A LIKELY LAD - THAT CHANCE
I MIGHT HAVE HAD AND GRABBED,
NABBED THE BACK OF TABS I SEE
to provide me and my family, our goodie bags"
