IN MECHANIZED PASTURES I have an electronic dove that weeps late at night for the early morning's passing. I must get it replaced. I have a handcarved television that only picks up green and sky-blue stations. I must get it replaced. I have a fuel-injected garden where flowers whisper pale purple and golden in twilight. I must get it replaced. I have a nuclear fishpond whose glowing denizens keep me awake at night. I must get it replaced. I have a hand-woven calculator which runs on sheer willpower and detergent but the numbers all add up to zero. I must get it replaced. I have an automated lover who loves me with all passion would do anything to please me... -- mund Freud Alan Scott n language ascot@agora.rdrop.com hs of regret nature file
