A conversation can change the world.
A listening ear opens the universe.
Do you like tea, sir? My barber asked.
Do you like biscuits, sir? Buy biscuit tea.
No need to ever chew a biscuit again.
Does your wife like peaches, raspberries,
things like that? Milkshake Shampoo, sir,
it has all the smells. I once had a client,
sir, who told me he fucked his niece
from his wife’s side. He expected me to say
‘Get in there son!’ I told him to leave
and sort his family out. I’d only shaved
half his head.
