Pyramid Scheme

“So we’re building a pyramid? Or just drawin’ the scheme for it? I mean, look, it’s pretty straightforward, you’ve heard of triangles, right—“

“No, that’s just what it’s called—“

“Or are you lookin for a pyramid to scheme in? Cause I’ll tell you right now, you can actually scheme in a lot of places. It’s not limited to pyramids.”

“No, no. It’s called that because like, that’s the structure of the organization.”

“You know, no one lives in pyramids though. They put dead people in ‘em. And maybe those dead people were schemin’, who can say. I don’t claim to know about, haha, you’re makin’ me nervous here, look, I ain’t tryna say any-thing I shouldn’t. We don’t know! We don’t know what happens after—uh, after ya know. I certainly don’t claim to know. But down there…in the dark, surrounded by all those riches and all your organs in lil bottles, well, like I said, who’m I to say? Don’t—don’t make me say anything! You hear? Don’t make me—I don’t wanna die in the dark! Don’t put me down there, wrapped hands reaching out for me in the dark, no—no—no—!”

“Good lord, calm down, I won’t!”

“You’re, you’re tryna make me say somethin’, huh! Who’re you workin’ for? Who’re you workin’ for tryna make me say somethin’ might get me in some kinda trouble? Noooo, don’t shake you’re head like that like I’m crazy, nah, naaaaah. No, I know. I met types like you before. You gotta certain glint in yur eye, like things been eatin’ you up for a long, long time, but you’re still standin’. Empty, yeah, but standin’. I know. I met folks like you before. Tell you right now, I’m out. You can’t make me say somethin like that I’ll regret.”
