PAGE 8 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Friday, May 6, 1966 The Green Gate By John Vernelson I just saw a sight unbelieve- able—I still can't believe it— in fact I refuse to believe it— What's wrong with everybody why did you make it possible — all of you are guilty — and you'll live to regret it — I'm glad I'm leaving — that's all I have to say Flat-footed - short - fat - stubby - sophomoric and that's only the surface — walk a- round like a playboy and grin and laugh and dribble from your sneering mouth. I hope you die tomorrow — the world will never miss you at least my world won't at any rate. Stand straight and walk and smile — a fine figure — you suck — and before long everybody beside me will realize •— that's the moment I look forward to seeing and when I do I'll laugh in your face until I die — that I promise. Forget it — the sun did shine today—the rain has stopped for awhile and everybody can walk outside again and at least look happy but I tell all of you now that next year you'll be crying again and it won't be because of rain — Right now—today—a mistake was made—people are strange. I can see it—I don't understand why all of you can't — I mean — it's plain — it's clear — the sky is still blue and that's easy to see, simpletons — I bet my mind half of you think it's cloudy — if you do I'm not surprised — Lines are not straight anymore — they go up and down with no set pattern — confusion — shock — and surprise — If the Moon falls tonight I won't be surprised — it could happen — don't laugh, simpletons — you can't understand — your mind can't conceive — it doesn't have any motivation because all of you are stale — sit around and watch T.V. and eat popcorn and drink cokes and read the paper and then go to bed — if you have the intelligence to wake up in the morning I hope you're blind — I hope the moon falls on your house — and crushes you to a thin sheet of nothing so I can pretend you never existed — then if there's a folly or a fire or an earthquake or nothing I can die happy knowing you will not experience my sensation — That's all — the moon will fall tonight. Miss Jackson County Pageant Scheduled For Tomorrow Night Tea Party For Hearts Scheduled EDENTON.—Edenton had a protest Tea Party before Boston did although Edentonians in 1774 drank their tea instead of dumping it. The North Carolina Heart Association announces that an Edenton Tea Party will be held on New Year's Day 1967 to launch the state heart disease control agency's year-'round educational efforts for next year.
