This afternoon tasseomancy

yields only scant results

And my amateur psychology

an impatient soul consults

 

The Argyle St. Peruvian band

play the same song every day

the notes they drone I can't withstand;

each worsens my dismay

 

But Lord, there'll be deliverance

from this army of pan pipes -

they've over-tested my resilience

for Andean stereotypes

 

El Cóndor Pasa far too much

and as a tune it's second class

If that siku once more you touch

I'll shove it up your mardi gras

 

You think these idle threats I swear

But we'll soon see who's outdone;

If you don't stop I'll come down there

and brutally murder the whole goddamned lot of you hateful, banal, keffiyeh-wearing faux-South American world music snob noise-polluting shite-merchant bastards with a motherfucking submachine gun.
