organic sex toy

a teenage boy in Knoxville, Tennessee
was found by firefighters
naked and burned in his bedroom

the boy was found nude,
with the remains of a cow’s heart
attached to his genitals

Officer Hardaway found pornographic
magazine in the remains of his room,
including the underground mag “Ovid Now”

which described how to make
a sexual toy out of a cow’s heart,
an electrical circuit and some batteries

this boy hooked the heart up
to a household current,
electrocuting himself

before he set his house on fire

The boy’s parents were contacted
while on vacation about the incident
and have remained unavailable for comment

•••

To check out sources,
this Knoxville Tennessee story
was reported in March
by more than one media outlet...

but a “media outlet” could be a web page,
and we wondered if it was true
because we found this story
also happened in Italy...

a coroner in Italy found what was originally
considered an unidentifiable mass
attached to a naked dead man

they later learned that this man
connected the heart of a cow, with cables,
to a 220 volt outlet.

220 volts? was this man stupid?
or are we for believing it?
so... keep searching for evidence
& be careful around outlets
