‘After telling my wife about Boston’s Great Molasses Flood, she accused me of putting together a fake Wikipedia page, just to mess with her.’ — Navin Weeraratne

.
I had researched
that story
about
the Great Molasses Flood

which
you were clearly
hoping
I had made up

Forgive me
it was pretty unbelievable
so sweet
and so dark

Russian proverb

A S H Smyth — Sun, 25 Nov 2018 13:52:39 +0000

A pike there is
lives in the lake.
His job’s to keep
the carp awake.

He drinks a whiskey almost every night

He drinks a whiskey almost every night.

He says:
“It gives me dreams,
but keeps me reg’lar.”
