| The poet's photoshopped image of Casey Anthony with Socrates and a young student in Raphael’s "School of Athens". |
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The Florida sheriff's office that investigated the disappearance of Casey Anthony's 2-year-old daughter overlooked evidence that someone in their home did a Google search for "fool-proof" suffocation methods on the day the girl was last seen alive. . . . WKMG reports that sheriff's investigators pulled 17 vague entries only from the computer's Internet Explorer browser, not the Mozilla Firefox browser commonly used by Casey Anthony. --Huffington Post
The wily fox, as some called Socrates,
spoke with Casey Anthony the other day
at an unknown cellular location.
Casey, in hiding after the trial, and Socrates,
freed from bodily inconvenience after his trial,
converged to resolve a thorny dilemma.
“Which is best,” she texted, “to escape punishment and live to regret?
Or to face the punishing side-effects of actions
made from a selfish and immature attitude?”
Socrates, reclining on his metaphysical marble couch,
lifted the Droid close to his eyes.
Texting was not his favorite method of communication.
He preferred to gaze directly at those
who wished to be freed
from the burning disgrace of ignorance.
“Tell me,” he began,
“which Browser is best to use,
Internet Explorer or Firefox?”
