A Highlighter Journey
Hey you guys ever sucked on a highlighter?
Try it sometime. Bite down hard on the felt tip and start sucking. It makes a weird sound and it tastes terrible and it kinda screws up the color of your lips for a couple days, but it’s awesome.
Here, watch how I do it.
*phhffffffffmmmmmmmmmmmmnngh!*
There, see? I just sucked that pink bastard dry. Oh god, that taste is disgusting. It’s like the chemical formula for sorrow. Why did I do this?
The remorse is unbearable. I am seriously regretting sucking on that highlighter. I can feel the pink toxins begin to drip into my stomach. Everything is so awful right now.
I’m seeing colors I shouldn’t be seeing. The room is beginning to spin…
Father? Father, is that you? I sucked the pink highlighter for you, Father. Just to see your face again.

I haven’t been one to suck on highlighters, but I do breathe on them sometimes to make them more moist. Now there is a good word: “moist.”

“dat’s why ahm sa dam dum…”
Sounds like Paul Simon’s “Graceland” album lyrics.
Oh wah, oh wah,

I told you not to use the pink. You’ll go blind!
