So there you are
at the farbrengen
patronizingly helping that bochur out
or making him think you're helping him out
or even convincing yourself you've helped him out
but have you helped him out?
who knows?
who cares?
oh look, they brought out soda-pass it here white boy!

You know
if you somehow corralled all the cows in the world
into a pen
not too big
just right for them
they'd still
have emotional issues
-----
beer is not
a solution to life's problems
but sometimes
it's a good substitute
-----
Tuesdays have been better
but I wouldn't bet
on them being much better

very nice, i see farbrengins make u contimplate very deeply.
I used to call my brother "white boy" all the time. He would always say I was gonna get myself shot for it, ch"v. I still don't see why.
Altie: Yup.
Sara: Maybe he was Michael Jackson-esque?
TRS's poetry
is often prose
split into separate lines
but that does give it
a nice effect.
I suppose I'll take whatever faint praise I can get.
