15. As my mother was always fond of saying, ‘It depends whose ox is being gored.’

Оглавление

Justin Bieber, someday you will grow strong

and then you will exact revenge for the pain

I experienced that Halloween night.

You know, when I was dressed as Geddy Lee.

My novel’s now called The Mistakener

and I dutifully watch the CBC.

I mean, PBS. It’s not like I killed somebody.

For my sin, I expect a pair of PUMAs.

So long Mount Royal, hello livin’ in a van!

Goodbye Wendy’s on Décarie Boulevard,

Hello Wendy’s on Lamar Boulevard!

For my virtue, I expect more thinness.

You know what might be easier? If you

all took turns poking me in the arm

with a jagged lamb shank. Then, just maybe,

I might stop to ponder your sweet ‘concerns.’

Li'l Bastard
