As the riffle of time was forgotten
the Tecate wars expanded
A river of blood had flowed on the internet
but in Visalia it was still bone dry
Arnold searched the abandoned trailer and found a six pack
of Budweiser under a bombed out refrigerator
he also found a three lb bag of Doritos
"JACKPOT"
He stuffed both into his rucksack and headed up the dry creek bed

The papers wanted to know. What was the rogue beast? was he the morgue beast?!
Did it sneak up behind the times? Did it (he?) find time
to carry out the waylaid plans of newbie redneck senators?
Did the legion of parables aid (HIM?HER? them?) ?

black eyed and mustachioed the morgue beast smiled like new car smell
the morgue beast loved to eat Spaghetti Bolognese in North Beach
the morgue beast spread thin mints along the sidewalk once
the morgue beast kept a steady pace when being followed
the morgue beast owned a squirrel who had once been the president of a small country in Central America I think Paraguay

The Legion of Parables offices were located in a non-descript Richmond district apartment whose former owner sold pot out of
The Legion of Parables had several voices to offer, all undecipherable some more so than others
The Legion of Parables used silent conversation to make unwanted guests uncomfortable
The Legion of Parables read Hemingway every day!
The Legion of Parables created time on a Saturday when no one was watching tv
The Legion of Parables quest was the complete annihilation of analogy
The Legion of Parables ....
 to be continued...

the morgue beast listened but did not hear- he was like that
the morgue beast capsized on a frozen eddy of time
the morgue beast knew a thousand rhymes
the morgue beast wore a jewish coat- not anti zionist
the morgue beast kept a few old warped LP's in the trunk of his car
the morgue beast once threw sugar cubes at cats near the vatican
the morgue beast once lived in Alphabet city with his girlfriend's mother

The Legion of Parables had a little sister named Alice
Alice was born in Indiana but was taken from her transient parents at a young age
she was placed in foster care with a family of meerkats living under the trash packaging units outside Racine, Wisconson
Alice became a wise but sneaky child always adhering to a known path
Alice was wary of unfamiliar objects
Alice became a commercial photographer and made quite a good living in Racine shooting
pictures of garbage disposals and laundry boxes


across the river is a house
across the river lives a mouse
across the river is the town
cross the river you will drown

over the mountain is a house
over the mountain lives a mouse
over the mountain is the town
climb the mountain you will fall down
