On the 12th day of the Eurocentrically imposed midwinter
festival, my
potential-acquaintance-rape-survivor gave to me:
+ TWELVE males reclaiming their inner warrior through ritual drumming.
+ ELEVEN pipers piping (plus the 18-member pit orchestra made up of members in good standing of the Musicians Equity Union as called for in their union contract even though they will not be asked to play a note...)
+ TEN melanin-deprived testosterone-poisoned scions of the patriarchal ruling class system leaping,
+ NINE persons engaged in rhythmic self-expression,
+ EIGHT economically disadvantaged
female persons stealing milk-products
from enslaved Bovine-Europeans,
+ SEVEN endangered swans swimming on protected wetlands,
+ SIX enslaved fowl-Europeans producing stolen nonhuman animal products,
+ FIVE golden symbols of culturally sanctioned enforced domestic incarceration,
NOTE: after member of the Animal Liberation Front
threatened to throw red
paint at my computer, the calling birds, French
hens and partridge have been
reintroduced to their native habitat. To avoid
further animal-European enslavement, the remaining gift package has been
revised.
+ FOUR hours of recorded whale songs,
+ THREE deconstructionist poets,
+ TWO Sierra Club calendars printed on recycled processed tree carcasses
+ And an Animal Rights activist chained
to an old-growth pear tree.
