Terrorrhea

Egocentric philanthropist,
Rub some Vicks near your eyes
So you can muster up tears,
Cry a brook and write another
Book. The cockroaches need more
Disposable coffee-table saviors.
Or you could save a tree instead.
Maybe if money was the flower,
Maybe if ratings were the fruit.
Hurry, don't step on your own feet,
You've got a congregation
Converting to a conflagration.
They'll paint this town freedom
And let it ring, like a phone
No one would bother to answer.

If you would like to make a call,
Please hang up and dial again.
If this is an emergency,
Please hang up and dial 911.
