The earth is almost round. The seas are curved and hug the earth, both ends are crowned with ice. The great Blue Whale swims near this ice, his heart is warm and weighs two thousand pounds, his tongue weighs twice as much; he weighs one hundred fifty tons. There are so few of him left he often can't find a mate; he drags his six-foot sex through icy waters, flukes spread crashing. His brain is large enough for a man to sleep in. |
