cream cheese on the moon - so the shrimps wish in their daily insomnia. so then they could perish all the walls under their legs... how they could, no one had known but the thoughts in their amphibian brains already flown, and the mad shiny stars had nothing to add, so their mad dreams in deep agony began.
for cheese is a primary crab nutritient and shrimps shone hardly in their earthly environment they longed for stars and longed for the moon inhabited by crabs on blue afternoons but shrimps wanted the whole night for themselves - without wings it looked a bit like a sysiphusian attempt.
act 1, scene 1 from shrimps on the walls(are dreaming of the moon)
This reminds me of my high school econ class. My teacher had used someone in class as an example and I forget what he was trying to explain, but the person in class was supposedly the only person in the world who knew how to build nacho cheese bridges to the moon. So that week, "Nacho CHEESE bridges to THE MOON!" was shouted a lot. And he was awake and presumably sober...
It has a certain ring to it, but I can't quite figure out what it means.
ReplyDeleteRoger that. And now I'm already working on it.

Sounds like a play off of one of Die Hard movies...
ReplyDeleteOr like the Honeymooners - a parody of "To the Moon Alice"
ReplyDeleteBetter cream cheese than nasty bleu cheese.

ReplyDeletehaha.. Long time fan- I love to start my morning off with a chuckle from STM. :) Thanks for being so diligent!
ReplyDeleteCheese to the Moon - isn't that a little like coals to Newcastle? 7@=Q
ReplyDeleteI thought the moon was supposed to be made of green cheese, but CREAM cheese sounds way better! :)
