Two Skulls that Talk

{ Ah ha! Masterfully writes my pen!
As I proof this draft of our
coup de l'economiques, }
{ no happenstance can I create in
mine mind that could foil my triumph! }

"Barry! Barry!
Come quickly! Something terrible
has happened!"
"Bah! What could this thing
that has happened now be?!"

"It is yellow skull! He has collapsed,
insensible, not unlike the proverbial
sack full of the cornmeal with whom he
shares a similar hue!"
"Foolish skull! I am closing my grasp
around the ownership of this pathetic
venture! It is the largest step yet towards
clinching my over-all scheme! Do not let
lame semi-gambits distract you from my
designs, and your duties!"

"Aļ, you fool middlemanager of wage-slaves!
Your ignorance spills from your lips like pus
from a lanced boil! If nothing else enters
your mind which isn't represented on a
balance sheet, I would have you know this:
yellow skull dissembles not!!"
"He is truly stricken--now rush to
his side, as we do, in the manner
of humane folk!"

"INSUBORDINATE CALCIUM-DEPOSIT!
None of the pay that has flown, as though
wing'd, from my mighty coffers--monies without
whom you would be junior mintless--has
been sent your way so that you could
speak thusly to ME!"
"You greatly forget your position and rank!
And I will respond to this in kind!
From this moment forth, you will hold
neither in this endeavor!
"

"Well may you rush to his side, or any
other locale that your fevered, fooled brain
can conceive of! It will brook no never-
mind from me, I sever you from your job!

Begone!"

"To leave your sight is a light thing to me--
the very optical photons gain a sour spin
when they rebound off your venomous
iris-slits and glinting fang!"
"I depart with up-beat and smiling
chimpanzees playing beauteous fiddle
compositions at the circus pavilions
of my soul!
"
