"Thoreau Hawks Viagra On TV" and "Nagasaki Chinese Restaurant"

Henry David Thoreau Hawks Viagra On TV 
by Carl Nyberg 

Dear American male, 
Maybe your're impotent 
Because you've gone from 
Quiet desperation 
To cowering for a paycheck 
For ripping someone off 

The Chinese Restaurant, Nagasaki, '91
by Carl Nyberg

After going to a brothel with a guy 
It's a little weird to get lectured 
By him about morality because 
I ordered the sweet & sour pork 

But religion doesn't 
Have to make sense 

You know the difference between 
Religion and a cult? 
Religions accept the authority of government 
Cults have the spark that compels them 
To say 
Maybe there's something better 
Holier, more righteous 

If government or a bank will give you 
Student loans for religious training 
Your church ain't gonna 
Change the world
