“it was daylight when you woke up in your ditch. you looked up at

your sky. that made blue be your color. you had your knife with

you there too. when you stood up there was goo all over your

clothes. your hands were sticky. you wiped them on your grass, so

now your color was green. oh Lord, why did everything always have

to keep changing like this? you were already getting nervous

again. your head hurt and it rang when you stood up. your head

was almost empty. it always hurt you when you woke up like this.

you crawled up out of your ditch unto your gravel road and you

began to walk and waited for the rest of your mind to come back to

you. you could see the car parked far down the road and you walked

toward it. if God is our father, you though, then Satan must be

our cousin. why didn’t anyone else understand these important

things? when you got to your car, you tried all the doors, but

they were locked. it was a red car and it was new. there was an

expensive leather camera case lying on the seat. out across your

field you could see two tiny people walking by your woods. you

began to walk towards them. now red was your color and of course,

those little people out there were yours too.”
