a smirking observation on one's journey through life...

quote:

We request these things only:
All gum must be placed beneath the seats
Or swallowed quickly, all popcorn sacks Must be
left in the foyer. The doors
Will remain closed throughout
The performance. Kindly consult
Your programs: observe that
There are no exits. This is
A necessary precaution.
