I see that I'd scribbled this one out back in 2006, when I was still wearing my wretched toad persona. Bearing in mind that I hadn't a clue why so many of us were enduring similar excrutiatingly painful symptoms, or even of the existence of Sutcliffe's Smart City quantum laser/wireless surveillance technology. That without our knowledge or permission, our homes had been rigged up to provide a practical learning centre for the local quantum recruits to come practise their laser skills..

HERE BE SPOOKS:
The Ballad of CacklinTard:


If Collin and Allen were to switch on the Mains
which one would be Pinky and which one the Brainz?

This Toad guessed at something
She's not too sure what
Something so big that it's got to be hot...
Reprisal was swift, though the punishment dragged
Forever and Always the Toad is now slagged.

So if you speak loudly of Telkom and light
of the Power that's needed to make lamps burn bright,
of crooked officials and say 'it's not right'.
Watch out for the Super with eyes red as blood
what he says with a smile is pretty much crud.
Beware of the crackers and trivia 'friends',
the self-proclaimed christians who church it, weekends.

With noses foot-long and eyes that are shifty
they leapt up the lightpoles by moonlight and swiftly
embellished those poles with tech stuff so nifty
that a fart from the Toad or a cough from her spouse
sounded clear as a bell in her DroneMaster's house.

This Toad guessed at something
She's not too sure what,
But somebody somewhere was sweating a lot.
Enough to take notice and start the ball rolling
To silence the Toad and all of her lolling.

For the Toad is old and as thick as a plank
and shallow as a puddle
Twas ever such fun, her hackers thought, to watch her in a muddle.
She caused a problem for a fungal friend
and must be made to pay..
come dawn or dark we'll harrass her to get her out the way.

and the Good sat quietly, saying not a word -
'Don't get involved' was all that they heard.
You have stuff to protect and things you hold dear,
it's just an old Toad who deserves it, you hear.

Hackings Illegal
For that you do Time.
Ja rite, said the Toad as she fell about laughing
the hypocricy here will soon set me to barfing.

So if Collin and Allen were to switch on the Mains
which one would be Pinky and which one the Brainz?
For ones a spook and the others a nerd
Revenge their forte, vendettas preferred.
Qualifications not needed, but that's okay
with an Electrics Diploma from the N.I.A.
