all hail the slush
... And it was written that they came to stand there before Frog,
in a host as numbered as the sea, but with the possibility of counting,
and less moist, though by no means completely dry.
And frog gazed down upon or up at them, and they knew then fear ...
... the eldest amongst them cried piteously for a paradise they might
not know, and piles. The youngest whined and vigorously excreted mucus,
drool, and waste upon their raiment. Those in their prime were overcome
with a mixture of fear, boredom, anger, fidgeting and a desire to laviciously
smite the hips, thighs and buttocks of the comeliest congretation members.
One thought of smotely congress so described, with the Frog, and spontaneously exploded in
a shower of gore and carrot pieces much to the amazement of others in the
congretation, for well they knew he was a man of peculiar tastes, and would
partake of no carrots, nor root vegetables of any kind.
... and some then cried out "Frog - we have come!". And they waited
then, but were answered by no voice, no movement, no blessings. And wait
did they, upon that mount, for sign from Frog. And then more waiting
was also involved. And after a time, some did then cry "Frog has abandoned us!",
while others did cry "If thou be Frog, then speak that we may have thine word!"
, and they came then to the wailing, and the gnashing of teeth, and
unbridled tearing of hair and at least one hurried fornication ...
... and so the silence became reproach, and the assembly were cowed by the
great judging silence of Frog. "Forgive us oh Frog!" one petitioner entreatied.
"Forgive! We are not worthy of thine voice!" one cried in a manner of atonement.
"Spatula!" one cried inadvisedly, and was efficiently throttled unto death by the
tender ministry of his neighbours, who were firm believers in excessive displays
of piety and devotion at the expense of others ...
... and so did Frog bestow upon them the boon of many hours of silence, and the host
gazed upon Frog with shining eyes, and cried out "The silence of Frog be praised!"
And one blithe spirit in the flock did then and there commence a hastily contrived
song of praise to Frog
"Frog of Silence Frog of Silence Frog of .. Silence Bring us ..err, violence Frog of Silence Frog of Silence .....errkk"
And the congregation did know rapture, and threw up their arms to the sky as the
throttlers did once again render judgement upon one who was large of mouth,
but small of mind.
