Toadeater Madness

Stop thinking out of your flask, and drink-in some sense for a change. Guttural palavering bridges no connection another caring human can manage. What you say? Lickspittles to madness.

In the heart or in the brain? Is it a lesion on the frontal lobe thing? Where’s the sense and the empathy? Hello? Is there a human in there? Toadeaters of bankrupt ideas.
