The Guilt Of Receiving Government Cheese

What is a concerned citizen of the World to do?
Children are starving in the world.....so we send them Velveeta
Ground water is contaminated and rivers are polluted with runoff
Someone in Washington Court House Ohio is drinking
the cremated remains of my Grandma and Grandpa in their morning coffee
The rat turds float to the top of my Corn Flakes....and I don't notice
The dog licks his balls and then licks my face.....I notice but don't care
My wife flushes the toilet containing...her urine and my sperm......
Aborting all evidence of our night before....and any future children.....
Meanwhile in Shanghais someone dumps a truckload of Aflatoxins in the Yangtze River
Headed for America...is another container ship of pet food.....
Grandma and Grandpa opened two cans....one for the cat.....and one for them......
Whoa' me....the guilt of receiving government cheese....is more than I can stand

The guilt of receiving Gov cheese
is a standard joke for the wife and me
so this one although hard to read
cause of facts that are; lets say
stretched some what,
and enjoyable read here
outrageous thinking behind it
you have to appreciate this one
nice flow also
