Gloating

Thrive on gloating

Flying missiles start to dive
Cannon fodder get no chance to cry
Vultures hover high above
Choosing the better of the slaughterhouse

My phone pings, staggering news of total destruction
Pangs of despair, watching the demise of Ukraine
Are there rules of war
Brazen resistance bitter as gall

Infantrymen standing face to face
Glossing their weapons in a deadly race
The war is no Nintendo game
Testing the mettle of the comedian whose adversary a black belt king

What's it called when Bloody Mary goes without vodka
Bloodbath, mate, molotov cocktail toast to purgatory
What else can you say
Hold your tongue, keyboard warrior, don't take pleasure in others' graves.

朋友說, 玉枕太多工夫了, 只想吃, 不想做。其實簡單的煮食也可以是佳餚, 我用了一些玉枕的剩餘食材做了這麒麟豆腐, 只花了幾分鐘。把proscuitto包住豆腐, 蓋上冬菰片, 蒸完加點油和醬油而已。

天災人禍, 嚴重影響民生, 蔬菜價格倍升。這裏出售的華人菜, 都不論斤兩, 一把一把用橡筋圈扎住出售的, 我從不考究重量, 也沒有人會考究。過往買菜心, 一般是$1一把或$4三把。水災過後菜架空空如也, 陸陸續續恢復供應後變成$10只有三把。我上週用$6.6買了兩把, 回家秤一下, shy of 480克, 13兩也不夠。戰事使油菜價格飆升, 升的當然不限於石油和蔬菜, 別以為不駕車就不受影響, 燃料價上升, 運費自然跟隨, 然後轉嫁到商品價格上。新病毒的出現可能是難免的, 發展成大爆發是人為的失誤, 戰爭卻是可以完全避免的。只有那些不用上戰場做炮灰的人才會雀躍。上過戰場, 嚇到屎流屁滾成河, 戰狼變羔羊才懂安份守己。至於人性, 還有嗎? 還可以討論嗎?
