Nate Logan: What Percentage of People Admit to Being Gravedancers?

Bad Execution

Some big questions approach a person
strolling through a cornfield. Approach
in the way a satellite tumbles end over
end, skips off a barn, and lands on top
of a basketball hoop. Nothing but net.
How many poets does it take to write
a sonnet describing a pastoral scene
b/w a love triangle? Can our councilman
win reelection with those trucker hats?
What percentage of people admit to
being gravedancers? A person stops
and reties their shoes; it’s the only way
to cope when confronted like this. It’s
a windy day at the department of interior.
