At The Mall...with Death & Jesus...(an archive post)

23.10.07

Death levitated, lookin' out over the parking lot.....
Death said, ".... Can't see the damned thing anywhere..." hoovering over a Fiat.
Jesus said, " I TOLD you , it's in the LL section...Arrrrrg, come down, and come on...". Stomped Jesus, huffingly.
Death said, " ...You hate this place don't you...? ", smiling.
Jesus said, looking at his sandles, " Hate ? strong word, hate. "Dispise", NOW there's a word for ya. Despise.
I despise cooked carrots. I despise yippi little dogs, I dispise the Amerikan health care system

I dispise the person trying to make that left turn acrossed the double yellow line at rush hour...

You know I think they should let the bloody Taliban come here and just do traffic control...

I'd bet good money that the first beheading for such a heinous infraction, would encourge the others...thus eliminating that problem...And, yes, I despise the Mall. Really. "

They walked about the lot for about a half an hour, discussing what they each despised...
Death said, " I despise those little hotdogs in a jar..." Cocktail franks " Yeech !...and those

horrible bald cats...You know your neihbour what's her name ?...Mrs. Slivermen ?

Can't stand the wretched woman...."
Death continues , " You hate this place don't you...Eh ? "
Jesus said , " YES !. I hate the mall. The people whom inhabit it and the commerical
desert they offer as " the latest thing ". Crass commericalisim Ca -Chunk Ca-Chunk Ca-Chunk
Theres Three More !!! just like everyone. Like you !!!

YES!!!!!!

I HATE THE MALL !!! MAN OF PEACE,

FRRRRRR-EAKIN' OUT HERE!!! HAPPY ?

HUMMMMM ? HAPPY ??? EH ? ...." screaming.

Ignored.
Death said, " Like me ? with my one suit and sandles ?..."

Death said, " Ah ! here we are...you've got the keys, No ? ..."
Jesus said, " ....I - I - I thought you had um'... ??????? "
Death smiles.....

...another beautiful care free day....

30.01.08
Uvieu, España

This day, a year ago, I was sitting with the Russian and the Bosinan
the Truks and the guy from Moldavia, playin' cards and smoking cigarettes,
in Malaga... The beautiful Costa Del Sol...and we all know where,
and for why, and who's wrath caused all this really...

Today will be a better day than that one,
freedom has a way of being that way, better.

I'm goin' out and walk around, it's early
and the streets of the Mall (oviedo)
will be empty, quiet and mine.
Can't take that away...
Nope.


Be well todo mundo,

" Relax man, only 26 more days then it's
out in the damned street with the tree, hasta luego !
27 days from now they will treat that big nativity scene
down there in the plaza of THE BIG CHURCH like
red headed step child ! Huh ! Into the damned
truck with these fiberglas sheep ! Hasta luego....
The santas will go back to being the " friendly "
drunk bums as always, " Hey buddy, gotta
buck for veteran...?" , just like normal.
All good, all normal.... only 27 days brother...relax."

Domingo, Velasquez, and Manoline sat smokin
behind the truck. They waited....
for the mall to close, and hoping Gerald,
a mall Santa, would not be late. They waited.

" You gonna smoke that thing, or what ? "
" yeah, but look over there...Is that Greald
gettin' busted ...Great..."

It was Gerald. Santa suited and sprawed acrossed
the hood of the cop car. They had a bag, and
were holding up what looked to be a bottle of
some sort...then another and another...
" Welp, now what boy's ? ...go and bail the brother
out...? Or to the Cueva Bar for some beers...? "
" ...Their cuffin' him up. Game over for Gerald...
poor stupid bastard...The Cueva, eh? ...."


Gerald sat in the back of the cop car
watchin' the truck and Valesquez
Manoline, and Domingo drive away,
He'd get out in the morning, and go back to
the house on the hill, " Only 27 more days
then HASTA LUEGO !!!! to this weird scene,
and to next xmas in Fez... "

Be well todo mundo,
