Genie in a Bottle 2004

One day as I was walking along on Hank Street. A young man dressed in middle eastern garb approached me. As if from nowhere did he materialize. The funny thing is, I had just taken note of all the albino squirrels running a muck from here to there and there to hear. Funnier still they were being chased by hundreds if not thousands of black cats. Any way the young man, who also smelled of patchouli asked, "would you like to see a genie in a bottle"? This is what he had.True story

"I run baerfoot over jagged rocks

I sleep on a brier patch.
Eat glass for breakfast.
Stare at at pond till it comes to a boil.
Piss me off and your hair will fall out, better yet your fields turn fallow.
I can give to you anything you want.
From thin air manifest diamonds, emeralds,rupees or rubies.
A treasure your pleasure, whatever your wants.
Pieces of silver, pieces of gold.
Fancy to meet me the Comte de St. Germain."
