Something About the Change

Let’s imagine the piece of paper folds itself

in half and walks away disgusted over some-

thing you meant to say. Fig trees in Lebanon

are growing bananas this year because ba-

nana trees in Brazil failed to do what they

were supposed to do. Raccoon wrestling

becomes a major event at the 2020 Summer

Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. As seen on TV,

thousands of disabled Opossum take to the

streets of Anchorage protesting for a fair wage.

You awoke this morning with the feeling that

things went out of kilter somewhere along the

way. Seems your mental hemispheres have

somehow been rearranged. You step outside

and look up at the sky checking for signs of

light. The two left shoes you’re wearing can’t

be right. You pinch yourself, and yep, it hurts

like hell. And from this point on, nothing

Donald Trump can say or do will seem odd to

you. Fake News? It is then you realize, not

even CNN or MSNBC can help you. What a pity…

Oh, for shame. You have only yourself to blame.
