When the Questions Run Out

I was resting on my couch when I saw the shadow on the floor waving at me. I thought it was a blowing in the wind tree limb’s shadow. But then I noticed the shade was pulled over the window. The shadow was independent.

I got excited. I like when I see something new. I figure there’s one of everything but it just hasn’t all been seen yet.

I said to the shadow, “How is it that you are independent from an object and a light source?”

The shadow said, “I could ask the same of you.”

I said, “You’re right.”

Then we watched “Louie” on TV. That show is so funny. Have you seen it?
