Cod Bless Americans

John Wayne brought his wife, who fills
her THC prescription on the
second thursday of every month for the
pain in her right foot. The two sat
across from each other in the corner eating
a dead horse while John's wife
complained about how there weren't quite
enough stars and stripes above the heads of all
God's children.
Time finally passed and she decided to be a
junkie not more than twelve years after. As she cried
from her grave for the next and final
fix, a telephone rang causing earthquakes
in the southern hemisphere of Arthur's
silver brain.
