It's not all like the Giving Tree

Like many others of my generation, I loved Shel Silverstein's work as a kid. The boa constrictor poem / song is probably one of his more famous favorites. After following a link from Metafilter (that I followed from Kris' site), however, I was surprised to read this follow-up to the hit he wrote for Johnny Cash.

Clever, but oh, so disturbing.
