I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Help Wanted, Need Feste, reply Jesters, Inc.

One of the functions of the Fool in a medieval court was the ability to tell truth to power through the use of humor.

And via good father and all around nice guy Dan, a Daily Show billboard for Minneapolis and the Republican National Convention. It is to laugh.

“For what says Quinalpus? ‘Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.’”

And a general question. Would you prefer I include that photo here on the blog, or the link to go see it in the original context?

Edit
Because Random Michelle K says (basically) "dance, monkey, dance."


I'm still givin' the link lovin' though.

Yeah, when I watch coverage (the rah rah gets to me after awhile) that sign keeps coming back to me.
