			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><p>
I am a vegan</p>
<p>Pure, Organic<br />
Meek, Malnourished</p>
<p><img id="image531" src="http://taoofdan.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/chickpeas.jpg" alt="chickpeas.jpg" /><br />
Chickpeas are my meat pellets</p>
<p><img id="image527" src="http://taoofdan.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/tofu.jpg" alt="tofu.jpg" /></p>
<p>Tofu is my life</p>
<p>The art of vegetarianism is pacifism between furry organisms</p>
<p><img id="image530" src="http://taoofdan.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/grandslam.jpg" alt="grandslam.jpg" /><br />
A Denny&#8217;s Grand Slam is a dinner of Death!<br />
<br />Two slices of pig skin, a couple chicken fetuses<br />
<br />Sunny-side up and side of toastâ€¦<span style="font-size:78%;">please</span><br />
<br /><span style="font-size:78%;"></span><br />
<br />A carton of eggs is not what I see<br />
<br />Twelve homemade coffins for under two bucks<br />
<img id="image532" src="http://taoofdan.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/Coffins.jpg" alt="Coffins.jpg" /></p>
<p><em>Old McDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-Oâ€¦and on this farm he had a chickenâ€¦</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="font-size:85%;">&#8230;but that doesn&#8217;t matter anymore, because an Egg McMuffin is much more important than a chicken well versed in Euclidean geometry. The poultry populous is eternally damned .</span></p>
<blockquote><p>
Mortally assassinated. <br />
Painfully annihilated. <br />
Pathetically depopulated.</p>
<p>Kill the chickenâ€¦killâ€¦kill the chicken!<br />
<br />
<img id="image533" src="http://taoofdan.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/eat_more_chicken.jpg" alt="eat_more_chicken.jpg" /></p>
<p>But I digress<br />
<br />I must confess<br />
<br />My body yearns for bacon<br />
<br />My head is throbbing<br />
<br />I must give in<br />
<br />To my paganistic, carnivorous desire of flesh<br />
<br />Give me some bacon and let the pig bleed!

<p>I was enlightened with the fact, that mangoes belong to the same family as poison ivy, the <a href="http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/339/4/235">Sumac family</a>. Certain cultures have made this fruit a staple in their diet. Puerto Rico became one of those countries. In 1750, the mango was introduced to their island and Puerto Rico embraced it. After two and half centuries of consumption, Puerto Ricans have unknowingly developed a natural immunity to poison ivy.<br />
Case in point, my friend Ricardo and I were running through the woods naked. I unfortunately was hospitalized for a burning, eczematous rash and mi amigo Ricardo came out unscathed.</p>
<p>Once I recovered, I had an inspiration and drew out my quill and scribed this poem&#8230;</p>
<p></p>
<blockquote><p>
<strong>I Wish I was Puerto Rican Because I Love to Go Camping</strong></p>
<p>Mangos<br />
Succulent orbs of protective fructose</p>
<p>Poison Ivy<br />
Infectious, secreting leaves of agony</p>
<p>The devious, demonic plant lurking below<br />
Preying on unsuspecting Gringos with their unprotected skin</p>
<p>Behold!<br />
Mira!</p>
<p>My epidermis is laced with Mango Madness.<br />
Defending my body from the venomous juice.</p>
<p>My regal blood is produced by my pumping, pulminary papaya<br />
Immune to the toxic Taliban of torment</p>
<p>Eschuchen, por favor</p>
<p>I love to lay in the grass<br />
You can kiss my Puerto Rican ass</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>
I am a futon<br />
<br />
Bare<br />
<br />
Unsoothing<br />
<br />
A studio staple<br />
<br />
A bypolar byproduct of urban convenience<br />
<br />
Some people love mattresses<br />
<br />
Some people love couches<br />
<br />
I go both ways<br />
<br />
Give me your back<br />
<br />
And I will fuck you up for days

<p>Let&#8217;s get this party started.</p>
<p>Mano y Mano<br />
Me against You<br />
My THAC0 is low, and your Armor Class is high<br />
Get your dice ready, and prepare to die<br />
Your lack of creativity appalls me<br />
(<em>let me guess a big barbarian with an Austrian accent and a two-handed sword named, Bonan</em>)<br />
How original.<br />
Roll for initiative.<br />
Yikes! I go first.<br />
Step aside, and watch the master.<br />
I rolled a twenty, bitch<br />
That&#8217;s a critical hit.<br />
Double damage.<br />
Not shabby for an itty bitty long sword<br />
Hate to see what carnage is released by my twelve-sided die<br />
A deadly Dodecahedron<br />
Inscribed with numbers.<br />
Ouch! I maxed it out.<br />
Twelve times two equals twenty-four<br />
Two more points, and you go nighty-night<br />
Pray for a cleric when you reach Death&#8217;s Door<br />
Your turn, slug<br />
You move like a tortoise with rigamortis<br />
Roll your twenty, and don&#8217;t fuck up<br />
Tisk, tisk, rolled a one<br />
Oops, looks like a fumble<br />
Stupid half-orc.<br />
(<em>That&#8217;s the last time you&#8217;ll call me a tree-huggin&#8217;, dandelion-eating, cucumber-suckin elf lover. What&#8217;s sad is most of your kind are created by the evil act of a human female being violently impregnated by a hideous orc. But YOU exist because your Dad was so vile and disgusting, he could ONLY FUCK ORCS!!</em>)<br />
Suck my steel, you son of a motherless goat!</p>

<blockquote><p>
Credit Cards are clean and sheen<br />
<br />
A modern way of life</p>
<p>Paper Bills are old world<br />
<br />
Absorbent, Dirty<br />
<br />
Reeking of human filth</p>
<p>The scent of a stripper<br />
<br />
Crack-fives and coke-frosted Benjamins, straight from Wall Street</p>
<p>When I look at a bill,<br />
<br />
I see a tree that never was!<br />
<br />
He could of been anything in the world<br />
<br />Perhaps a Christmas Tree</p>
<p>Alas!<br />
<br />
He would be doomed again<br />
<br />
35 million trees are slaughtered by ax-wielding Santas<br />
<br />
Maimed at their knees</p>
<p>
Christmas capitalist consume!</p>
<p>Merry morticians decorate with glee<br />
<br />
Rotting corpses in the guise of gaiety and garland<br />
<br />One bowl of water away from death</p>
<p>Ridiculed with trinkets, hot lights, and a gaudy gold star<br />
<br />
Humiliated, Confused<br />

Yo soy un hombre flaco y blanquito.</p>
