I'm reminded of a coach
who taught health class
in my high school.
>
He looked like a cross
between Peter Lorre
and Patton Oswalt.
>
And he never failed
to lecture the class
on "survival of the fittest."
>
There was a disconnect
between his public and private behavior.
But I didn't know it at the time.
>
Back then, gossip didn't spread too fast.
You had to stand still in a selected place
to use a telephone
>
and there was no texting
or personal computers
or any of the stuff that now
>
enables us to know hyperquick
about hypocrites, homilies and
counting on the public to swallow it whole
>
Be careful of how many bodies you bury
and all the skeletons you stack in storage.
There's always someone
>
who will take as much time as necessary
to bring petrified sin to the earth's surface
and hit the switch of a giant fan
>
so everyone can sample the putrid aroma.
