Twig

Twigs are interesting.  They are little branches off of trees.  Are twigs useful?  Maybe.  You can thrash someone with a twig, although I would bundle a bunch of twigs together for a more "meaningful" thrashing.  Or you can make a small fire with a cornucopia of twigs.  Maybe take a couple of twigs and build a beautiful structure that's open to interpretation by mindless admirers.  Whittle a twig into a giant toothpick, menacing clueless people with food stuck in their teeth.  Build a nest for the almost extinct eagle, lining the inside with rabbit fur you plucked from a poor innocent bunny hopping along the forest.  Yes, I believe twigs are quite useful.  I believe I proved my point with this paragraph.  What are you going to create with twigs?

Meridian

Meridian, Meridian,
How I loathe you,
Great Imaginary Circle You Are,
Not connecting anything,
Yet you exist,
To Muddle,
To Manipulate,
To Mystify,
Confused youngsters,
Sitting in Geography Class,
Teacher drones on and on,
About a Great Imaginary Circle,
How I loathe you,
Meridian, Meridian,
How I loathe you...
