Zuckerberg sucks 09.02.2011.


Source: The Guardian
Mark Zuckerberg, lists his Facebook profile interests as 'openness, making things that help people connect and share what's important to them'
Is that why he obtained a restraining order on Pradeep Manukonda, alleging that the 31 year old 'sent him flowers and tried to accost him.' He also accused Manukonda of writing a letter to tell him that he'd been 'an inspiration to all of us.'

Desire to connect
turns Fbook founder MZuch
into fuckoff schmuck.

Elton 'pops' sprog.


Source: The Times

The rock star Elton John, 63, has decided to become a gay dad with his partner David Furnish.
He hired a surrogate mother, a 'gestation carrier' as it is known in the USA at
£10,000 a pop ('that's 1.67 per hour, as the owner of the womb balefully announced) for the sprog he has named Zachary.
Elton also 'revealed' his desire to found a museum to house his huge photo collection and personal memorabilia.
'I've always wanted to leave all the photographs to the nation, and the memorabilia at the same time, to create a museum where you see my life' said Elton, formerly known as Reg. Dwight. 'Instead of doing a biography or autobiography' he mused 'you see my life through objects and you get to see the wonderful photographs I've collected over the years.
I'd love to do that but you have to find the space and get it funded-it's quite complicated.'
 
Elton can't write pop
any more. He's decided
to pop one instead.


Dwight, decrepit,
pays gestation carrier
to Furnish a son.


Loaded has-been Dwight
wants the world to pay to view
his off-loaded crap.

E-confessions.09.02.2011

Roman Catholic bishops have approved a new iphone/ipad app. that allows users to to make confessions with a virtual priest over the internet.
'Confessions: a Roman catholic App.' on sale this week offers 'a personalized examination of conscience for each user.' Sins are listed by misdeed and omission. A button lists 'customary sins' gluttony, envy, greed, etc. Each sin is check-boxed. A next command brings up one of the Acts of Contrition. Users then press 'Receive Absolution and respond Amen' before going to 'Finish.' A spiritual quote then comes up.
It was made by 'Little Apps'


Forgive me father
for coveting my neighbour's
app., deleting sins.

Father Ted, eat your
heart out. Virtual Churches,
priests, sins are here now!

Hospital cafe13.03.2011

Shelved, for a time
in the cafe queue,
the visitors glaze over,
dazed, gaze through the
thickets of care, of chat
and that;
seek crumbs, slices of
comfort- hot paninis,
steak pies,
Roquefort binlids 
something wholly
inappropriate;
burn fingers, mouths,
minds;
watch the green caps
and aprons rush around,
watch the incubation
of hot food.

Hospital visitors. 13.03.2011


Hospital visitors 28.01.2011.


The disarrayed folk collected here,
dragged out at strange times
are huddling behind the swish doors
that flap open, give way
to a fate that is
death or deliverance.

We mass in the corridor,
just beyond the life support business.
The heart and heat of terror
seers, coalescing inside us.
We are aghast as never
before.

The hand cleansers
are salvation
We wash away certainty,
cleanse fear,
bacteria, everything
here at the font,
bathe sorrow over
and over again,
fist over fist.
