Hello . . . this is Joe. Welcome to A Daily Drabble. Please add 100 words of prose or poetry as a comment on any date you want and in any order you want. Please reply on the drabbles you like. I'll moderate the comments at night, and they'll appear the next day. This is for everyone!
I see a Malamute: I see Photoshop has been at it. I don’t mind: photos anyways challenge veracity. I see cold water, clear in my mind but who really knows besides that Malamute. If the water ain’t potable—no surprise here: humans excel at fucking up nature. Yah, so duh you crack open soda. You hear Missy Eliot in your cortex. You think sex sounds Saxon—but trust its etymology counters with a big fat no, cocky as monuments to male gods. I doubt schlong has an etymology unless one counts vernacular. Pussy, for sure, derives from a leopard-print thong.
ReplyDeleteI’ve explained it before. A dog’s eye blinks with more photoreceptors, and rods within the retina help find rabbits at night. A human’s eye gathers cones for more color, and the dog will never know red, orange, and green. He will know yellowish things, and he’ll rely on a superior nose for sniffing across reflections of squat homes—don’t you wish you had such a glorious nose, hairless monkey? I’ve seen the way you stare with vomeronasal envy at the carousing canines. I’ve seen the way you crouch in low branches, afraid to pad over damp earth on bare feet.
