Lining up batteries of anti-aircraft anti-everything all anti- something this and that distribution centre for psychological pressure backed by radio, TV presidents staring straight newspapers, journals and dialogues around flash round tables on the whys how’s and who’s sneaky microphone hidden in flower pots, long distance listening devices. Telephones tapped wives tapped, senior diplomats and doormats tapped wives tapped on shoulders whispered to: watch out for Joe blogs he has a roving eye. see me tonight, after dinner. The russians have warship A into Zone B the chinese have shifted anti-missile up the mountains near tibet, near nepal near taiwan, near  the hormuz straits into africa, zimbabwe, fiji, and northern china who cares. Tomorrow they will shift out again. the pressure is building in the ukraine, turkey is on fire The north koreans have no power as seen from satelllites The president has run of tomato sauce so he has asked for a shipload from us of a ship it with some spies dressed as tomatoes god its killing me these acupuncture points three more needles please!
