Unintention (contemporary literary criticism)

[Erthona]

Unintention

 
 
To obfuscate, the catch of the day,
She’ll hook you in her fishy way,
Sentence like sonata she’ll play,
until you're fast asleep.
 
Annabel, cry Annabel,
consigned me to a written hell,
A hick, I’m sure you learned me well,
to close my eyes and sleep.
 
Kant, I forgave for sentence long,
though one, to a paragraph belonged,
Annabel has learned your song,
and sings us all to sleep.
 
Annabel, cry Annabel,
consigned me to a written hell,
Where the first point ends, I cannot tell,
for I have gone to sleep.
 
A quote from here, a reference there,
We’re fed substantial rarefied air.
And Samuel calls, beware, beware,
you’ll soon be fast asleep.
 
Annabel, cry Annabel,
consigned us to you're written hell.
Escape impossible? No soul can tell,
for we are fast asleep.

Ray,

"Camomile Tea? Amused and not asleep. " Just take one class in postmodern literary criticism, with/ or without water. The effect is nearly instantaneous. If they could put it in a pill, they would be millionaires, as it is definitely not addicting.

Well that tells you everything you need to know. At least I took lit crit (about 15 hours) from someone with a PhD, and not someone who got a masters for dummies.
But I agree, the story roughly fits my title. Lord, please save us from those who spend their days picking the fly shit from the pepper! For some reason it reminded me of the maze runner.

Fly shit not only looks like pepper, it tastes like it as well.
(What I buy, they tell me, is 100% pepper.)

While majic cloth can be used to strain the one from the other,
it will cost you $80,000 to obtain the necessary permits.

Government want its cut, and don't they also get to keep the fly-shit? The cloth is woven with mixed strands of gold and the purest blonde hair one can find on a Welsh girls ass. The length is no problem, its the purity part that's the problem.

Two stupid (yes I know it's redundant) American guys walk up to these two girls and say,

"How, would you two Scottish girls like to party with us?"

"It Wales you idiot Wales."

"Oh sorry. How would you Scottish Whales like to go out and party with us?"
