i ought to feel better
   than i do
a keeping-up debtor
i ought to feel better

weather growing wetter
   dems are winning too
i ought to feel better
   than i do



The Gallant Gallstone is now available as a book! " 'What's that?' 'It's the title of a novel. By Lois Cook.' 'What kind of novel?' 'Oh, just a load of drivel. It's supposed to be a sort of prose poem. It's all about a gallstone that thinks it's an independent entity...and then the man takes a big dose of castor oil. ...It's all supposed to prove that there's no such thing as free will.' " --The Fountainhead (1943)
