That’s my chair, you. Little house queen, you. Sleeping killer, you. Cuddle stalker, you. Fine. I’ll admire you from the floor.

Victory Limerick. Cuomo was a billionaire dork. Who ran for mayor of New York. Mamdani said relax. Let the rich pay the tax. And Cuomo choked on his fork.

Queer vs. Megapastor
On stage at the suburban stadium, the cheapest entertainment of the week, presents a man who glows like radium, with thousand dollar slacks and slacking cheek. His eyeballs glitters at the ceiling fan, projected on a Babel tower screen, as God himself demands the humble man, collect a tenth of all my weekly green, because a deity that can create, a hundred billion galaxies next door, can also buy a pastor real estate, but only if I give a little more. And yet his god is weak enough that I, can steal the rainbow from his holy sky.
