Bringer of Anvils

by Emmit Other

There are more things in this universe Horatio
Than dreampt of in your Philosophy
Then again considering that your philosophy was
Getting Bingo on Sunday at Brunch
That's not saying much
What I am saying
Is that there are things in the universe that we do not understand
Like what made anvils so heavy
Gravity
And what made anvils so appealing in cartoons
They could have used safes
Pianos
Conservative Souls on an Egyptian Scale
But Anvils are about creation
And so to use them in destruction is particularly amusing
Out there in the umbra
there is a being who uses these tools
He finds the hypocrites
A spirit to be invoked in times of evil
In times of Rape Apology
And above all in times of rank dank sexual harassment
Go forth Bringer of Anvils
Let the Anvils Fall Where They May
Where They Are Least Expected
Where They Are Most Needed
Go forth
And let the anvils fly
Bring a whole new meaning
To the Anvil Choir
