[IN THE DOME HOME continued EDIE speaking]
Hey, did you hear, Pam's pioneer work in teaching men
to cry at her sensitivity seminars earned
her a paragraph in Psychology Today? I brought y'all a copy.
Bob, does that tank still leak, 'cause listen, now
it squeaks, too.
Lyn, you know, you should sign up Bob for Pam's next seminar,
"Anima, Animus, Animosity."
I got to commend you Bob: Your solar thing you're into is
admirable, but this catalogue here, "Karma-Krafts."
Some of this stuff you're selling is New Age
chotchkes. I mean, there's some worthwhile stuff
here. These Bio-Bottom diapers-that sounds
okay. But most of this stuff is just New Age kitsch,
now admit it.
Look at this-aura goggles.
Here's some pyramid salt and pepper shakers.
"Key to the Universe" key chains. Oh, and these patchouli-
scented candles-guess that covers Indian philosophy.
Bumper stickers:
"It you think you are on the path, you are lost;
this is the Holywood Freeway." Here's another one I think I'll order:
"Honk! Honk! Honk! is not a mantra."
Bob, what yellow brick path are you on? Trying to mix
consumerism with higher conciousness,
you're liable to have a big karmic debt to pay. Hell, Bob, I recall
how you used to say
how we all had to look at success in a new way
or we'd never be truly successful. I used to dig you talkin' like
that 'cause it felt like you meant it.
I thought you were one of the handful of people left who cared
about not selling out. Remember all that shit about
"only wanting to do well if you could do good"?
