V. Letter to the Editor
'Master,' he said, 'the world is hanging
out in empty space?'
The master said, 'Oh no, my son,
it has itself a base.'
'What is it?' asked the student then.
'A turtle holds our place.'
'But master,' asked the student next,
'What holds the turtle up?'
'Another turtle holds it son.'
He sipped tea from his cup.
'But master,' asked the student thrice,
'What holds that turtle's shell?'
'My boy,
it's turtles, turtles all the way down.'
III. The Conversation
Well...
We all have our turtles,
but some of us actually hate the sounds they make
under the left rear tire.
And so I chose instead of slicing pig fetuses
to listen to Tolkien's Gandalf –
mindset goes like this:
I. Zine
He who breaks a
thing
to find out what it
is
has left the path of wisdom.
