It’s da Bomb, Pops
1st place in Derby #44: Summer, with 1083 votes!
First we heard the sound. I’ll never forget it. It was a kind of a
tinkling music. “Pop Goes the Weasel.” By then it was too late to take
cover. They were already upon us.
Kids were screaming and
running, running and screaming. I heard one girl calling out for her
mother, who was nowhere to be found. There had been a baseball game
going on in the park. It disintegrated immediately. The dugouts
emptied. Runners fled from the bases. It was pandemonium.
Then,
almost as suddenly as it had begun, the whole thing was over. They sped
off, leaving us all dazed, clutching our heads from the icy pains in
our skulls. Still, we were just glad we’d come through it, who knows
how. We didn’t have any idea at the time about our increased risk of
heart disease and diabetes. That came later. Much later.
This
shirt was designed by: Derby mainstay tgentry, making it look easy once
again. If there’s a Derby theme outside this kid’s wheelhouse, we
haven’t thunk it up yet.
Wear this shirt: In over a
hundred countries whose governments just agreed to scrap their cluster
bombs, but whose stockpiles of rocket- and bomb-pops are steadily
growing.
Don’t wear this shirt: if you’re sensitive to sugar rushes.
This shirt tells the world: “I scream, you scream.”
