PEOPLE
OF A PERCEPTUAL POVERTY
They slunk unseen to the bowels of learning and crunched their wisdom teeth together and ended up with bruxism!
There was no getting from the fact and the follow-up that there was an unpardonable mess up and since there was nada they could do about the haridan, 'as forbidding as the North face of Eiger' as she was, they crunched out a nutcracker solution:
"PERSONIFIED!"
they croaked horrified.
'How can you PERSONIFY DEMOCRACY?' they decried in perfect possession of pompous prose.
"Why can't you,' requalified the dubbawalli, "when little men in belittling minds parked in large mansions for which they don't pay no rent, are busy 'FIGHTING' 'ON ALL FRONTS' IN A 'GLOBAL WAR AGAINST TERRORISM' why can't DEMOCRACY BE PERSONIFIED?'
That stumped the wise nuts for a little moment but soon they were blustering in unison never seen in their argumentations! "Yes they are because TERRORISM IS THE FACE OF THE INVISIBLE ENEMY!' they triumphed at their own trumpeting!
'And what is DEMOCRACY if not a visible vegetable which you eat in your dubbas daily."
'Go away! We don't want to hear homespun home truths over here. THIS IS THE HALL OF LEARNING."
Aye So! It would be too. If it weren't for you lot crouching down here in the bowels of the buildings like constipated stools in the colon, straining to pass through but only passing BIG WIND!" she opined through her paan-thook!
| BOG OFF YOU BUNGLING BUMMERS! |
|
| AND GET HOPPING ON YOUR SHOCK-ABSORBERS |
'And once ya can see without what's in me dubba, then you'll come to the sensible way of thinking! YOU LEARNED LOUTS! YOU FALSE-TOOTHED TOUTS!
'Tell me if TERRORISM can be a bearded misguided testosterone running on a false prayer, why can't DEMOCRACY be a she dubbawalli in a gulalgold saree?'
"And if little men with belittling minds in big mansions for which they don't pay rent can FIGHT TERRORISM why can't l'i' lady like me, dubbawalli in gulalgold saree run a DUBBAWALLIS DEMOCRATIC DELIVERERS GUARANTEE A DDDG?'
