invasion's podcast

This sonic-theatre piece is on the subject of animal mutilations. It appears to be a planetary problem that like with other need-to-be-addressed issues, is being totally ignored by governments and media alike.

I wasn't convinced these were happening until someone I knew lost four goats to an unseen predator. Who or what is "messing with the kid"? A question on everyone's lips, no doubt.

I read about this dude in Louisiana
(wherever that is)
Who got 20 years hard-labor for
15 grams of grass
He was a third-strike-you’re-out offender
But who did he offend?
He must be black

[The Deep South, Hurricane Katrina]

[second voice] : well somebody’s gotta pay for our mistakes
Pussies. Free-Loaders.

It’s business as usual in the USA
and smoking a joint still won’t keep
the lawmaker away.
