SK: Where'd you learn to mill such fine delicious?

J.D. Nelson: I studied at the Colonel Flagg School of Brain Massage, where I double-majored in Burns and Houlihan and minored in Mind Control.

SK: How hard monthly and by what methods do you satellite your beautiful Mad Verse?

J.D. Nelson: I love the Lord with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength. Like Philo Beddoe, I get down any which way I can.

SK: Some girl’s face convinces you to throw milk at a wall – is portraiture happening?

J.D. Nelson: Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

SK: A toilet accuses you of molestation – did you get your hysterectomy at Toys R Us?

J.D. Nelson: The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

SK: A dog bites its own tail until gangrene sets in – is this how you make love?

J.D. Nelson: As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.

SK: Your lover has an affair with your favorite assault rifle – do you announce your candidacy for president?

J.D. Nelson: My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

SK: Oh, a barking dog wrecked your good intentions – why is it that you prefer insecticide to all your pretty friends?

J.D. Nelson: They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

SK: Which physicists endure anemometric digestion for machines that imitate sleep?

J.D. Nelson: It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

SK: What kind of rapist doesn’t own a television set?

J.D. Nelson: But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die.

SK: You are being chased by people with accordions – do you want to be caught?

J.D. Nelson: Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.

SK: Why do you make a habit of corners and excuse your tardiness with lewd photography?

J.D. Nelson: Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in bruising thy teats by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth.

SK: Do large women reciting geometry in absinthe-colored bathtubs give your cigar a hernia?

J.D. Nelson: And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

SK: What recommends invalidating time with stochastic hotness?

J.D. Nelson: They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.

SK: How has nanotechnology revolutionized the enema?

J.D. Nelson: Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

SK: Who bleeds first: the air or the vocalist in front of the air?

J.D. Nelson: Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.

SK: Had you lain with schools of thought, courting purposeful delusion? Did you then administer electricity to improve sub-atomic structure by testing weight?

J.D. Nelson: And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.

SK: Who pants good slither?

J.D. Nelson: Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.

SK: Is your behavior full of band aids?

J.D. Nelson: My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
