Scrawl on the Wall 013

So, all of a sudden you've got this idea like you are going to be a useful member of society and change the world, shape the elements, and make things better? This coming from a man who over-watered a cactus?

Look, my friend, you may know a lot about the way an internal combustion engine works, but I for one prefer the subtle knowledge and control that one can attain over the human mind.

Remember when I did that card trick three months ago? It blew your mind. You were left stunned as I choose your card, pulling it from your ear and then dropping it into my shoe.

It was all a scam.

I am not a powerful magician from the darker realms.

You believed it, you moron.

That's why you agreed to siphon that gasoline.

And now who's laughing?

Laughing as I drive my '73 Plymouth across the deserts of Southern California, trying to remember if my headlights work.

Don't try to change society

Just give me some money.
