I saw a man standing on a box outside a government office at night he was trying to get in proclaiming everythings not right and i walked up and said good sir why is it that you scream his reply, a simple one, was like from out a dream Free The Whales said he from atop his box to my face with pure delight and i stood there motionless on that moonlit summers night Dear sir, said I, with placid disdain whatever do you mean why stand outside a government office ans say something so obscene well let me tell you a little story and then i will let you know what Free The Whales is all about and why i scream it so you see, kind stranger, i once was a man quite honest and quite pure but my Uncle Sam he drafted me to fight some bullshit war and so i went to serve my land as i was supposed to do and i came back with nothing left but bills that were overdue my family starved i could get no job ans so i turned to them but Uncle Sam he turned his back just on a single whim so now i stand outside this office everynight and day yelling at the top of my lungs what you just heard me say but dear sir what does it mean again i asked the man take the first letter of each word and then you might understand so i went home with a puzzled head confused and slightly mad and then that night right before sleep it came to me in my head and i laughed as never before at what the man had said for in his own words he had proclaimed what every person wanted FUCK THE WORLD!
Reason for writing:
Something drastic happened to me at a weekend thing that i went to so i decided to write something loosely based on it.
