The Brighter Side

I slammed on the breaks, but I was too late and went into a sinkhole in the freeway.

My car and I traveled for about ten minutes. We landed safely.

I got out of my car. The ground felt spongy.

I looked up and saw a distant light coming from the entrance to the sinkhole.

My car said, “It could have been worse.”

A Ten Spot

I was sitting in the mineral springs for my birthday when the ghost of Alexander Hamilton joined me.

I was enthused because he’s on the ten-dollar bill. I think it would be exciting to be on money. The only problem is it would be hard to experience because you have to be dead to be on money.

Still

I looked out my window at the burning bear. The bear was running across the field.

Part of me wanted to run outside, turn on the hose, and extinguish the flames extending from the bear’s fur.

Another part of me was afraid that after the bear was appropriately doused, he would turn to eat me.

I remained in my chair, stuck in dilemma.

A Better View


I had enough and went to the Moon to get away.

I took a nap in a crater.

When I awoke, I saw the big blue beautiful Earth in the night sky and took this pic.

The Earth’s not a bad place when you’re 238,857 miles away.

Lunch!

I was walking through the desert with my friend Pouka the armadillo when I stepped on a cactus needle that went into my foot.

I remarked on how much it hurt.

Pouka the armadillo said, “You should leave the needle in your foot. It’s good zen training.”

I pulled out the needle and then cooked Pouka the armadillo for lunch. It was the perfect noon-day snack!
