Cock

17 August 2016

Behold! You know when a dog listens to you, listens so intently and with total focus that there is no doubt it understands you? And it cocks its head on one side as-if to underscore the extent of its devotion? Marvellous! Ruby dog often evokes that feeling of omnipotence, yes.

Oh I wish there was a drug I could have produced in large-enough quantities, and then have delivered to the human (and near-human) population of this island nation by a fleet of autonomous drones. A drug to at least mimic that response in others. Wouldn’t that be great‽

Yes, obviously. And then, the world!

Let’s face it though, I’m more likely to get that sort of response if I become a boy band or enter politics.

Everyone knows where those two paths lead, so I’d best not.
