smuggler
there is this clever smuggler
who also has a military
that military has a country
the country has four provinces
one province is mineral-rich
“the chandelier of the forehead”
but people have no say
anyone saying anything disappears
business-being (BB)
then there is a business-being
he’s the most powerful-being
he wants everything he could lay his hands on
for him, everything is fair in business
he writes his own laws
that everyone has to follow
he’s not a lawyer
but he makes laws on the basis of his power
smuggler meets business-being
the smuggler is very powerful
but have a powerful enemy in the vicinity
he thought of bettering relations with the BB
so he delivered a person wanted by BB
then he told BB that he’s a peaceful-being
he also said BB should get a peace prize
he also promised to supply smuggled goods
such as the critical minerals & rare earth elements
for BB, that was the Oreos on top
samples exhibited
in South Asia, very rich people buy differently
they don’t visit shops when buying clothes or jewelry
the owners bring exclusive quality items to their homes
100s of saris, sets of jewelries, shalwar kameez sets, etc.
the BB was provided similar service by the smuggler
he brought samples thousands of miles to BB
BB was impressed
USSM‘s Stacy W. Hastie hastily announced: it’s “a milestone“
