IIRC, there's one more clause, which, I think, really makes it art:
"...it looked like a tooth, but it wasn't a tooth, so I ate it."
...burning baby fish swimming all round your head.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
DebetEsse is right. It looked like a tooth, but it wasn't a tooth.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm kind of glad I don't have a convenient Whole Foods (and also am pretty cheap) so I don't have to grapple with that issue.
Yeah, that's where I am, too. The co-op is slightly closer in the other direction, I don't really get there very often either, but it is a joy to shop at when I do. But, hey, fruit stands all over the place keep me in fresh eggs and local produce and honey.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I don't remember that. I mean, I remember that it wasn't a tooth, but not that it was part of the rationale.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
At Madison, I lived in a coop, then later worked at a bakery coop. Though I was more of a filthy anarchist rather than a filthy communist.
Now I'm just a filthy nihilist.
eta: Oh, I worked at a bakery coop in Minneapolis too.

Get a bath, you hairless cat loving nihilist!
Say what you want about the Nazis, at least they had an ethos.

I've still got no job offers, and as far as I know, I'm not even shortlisted anywhere. Getting kind of worried.

In the future, we will be ruled by Roomba-riding cats.

A Roomba-riding cat would really pull the room together.

Cat riding roombas more likely.
