EMAIL OF MUNDANE TERROR AND DESPONDENCY

Dark humor of the mundane type.

There’s birthday cake in the conference room
     and death awaits for those who approach.

There’s birthday cake in the conference room

     and eternal nothingness of the black abyss awaits all.

There’s birthday cake in the conference room

     and it is a cake of everlasting ennui and despair.

There’s birthday cake in the conference room

     and the mighty Cyclops awaits

    to crush and eat the mashed bone dust of those who partake.

That was priceless. The evils of the office room snacks. Brilliant satirical piece. Still laughing.

I wanted to take the most benign (but annoying emails) and contrast them with the darkest, most horrible concepts. Keep laughing and thanks.

i was reading this humming the Beatles' song "all too much" written and sung by george.

"all the world is birthday cake, so take a piece but not too much"

[rutherford]

That works for me.
