The cool thing

about violence

is that I have never

ever hurt anyone

I have eaten sandwiches

and gained

a lot of respect

for Italy

because they managed

to convince the world

that all French people do

is be poor

get sick

sing arias

and die

so imagine my shock

upon entering

Madame Tussauds

and seeing conquerors of nations

rendered as wax figures

with itty bitty

baby carrot

crotches

an essentially Greco-Roman error

although one wonders

if it was not for modesty

that ancient sculptors carved

such small manhoods

but an actual failing

on the part

of men

one must wonder such things

even Christ had his doubts
