The Duck
The duck said, “Hey, down here.”
I asked what it wanted.
The duck said, “I just wanted to say hi.”
I wanted to resist the duck because I had places to be, but it’s a duck. What could I do?
Stars
Last night I couldn’t sleep because all the stars wouldn’t stop shining. So I went outside and yelled at the sky to keep it down.
The stars said, “But we did this for you.”
Right
This morning I took a walk through the Weeping Willow forest with God. God said, “What is it this time, Brooks?”
I said, “Can you fix it so that I stop thinking that I’m right and others are wrong.”
God said, “I already balanced that out by making others think that you are wrong and they are right.”
I said, “Well, shouldn’t I at least try to think differently?”
God said, “You’re trying to fix something that’s not broken.”
The Rock
The rock said, “I want to be seen by the world.”
I said okay and put it on the internet.
The rock said, “I don’t feel any different.”
I said yep.
