Most everybody has something that is seared into his or her brain. For some, (the older among us) it is the moment that they heard Kennedy had been assassinated. For others, it is the image of a loved one. For at least one, it is a fictitious account of Christmas in Cambodia.
For me, it is a stupid, childish and inane little poem I read back around the fourth grade. I would like to share it with you. (I can’t remember the title or author, but no one is perfect)
A flea and a fly were caught in a flue.
“Let us fly,” said the flea.
“Let us flee,” said the fly.
So they flew through a flaw in the flue.
Now maybe it will be stuck in your heads like it is in mine! Mwahahahaha!
(Just for those of you who don't know what a flue is, it's a part of a chimney. I know, it still doesn't make much sense.)
(grinning appreciatively) That is just plain evil!
How the hell did that get stuck in your head?
