Firethorn's Den

Nocturnal Adventures

When the moon started to sing  a  lullaby to the trees,  I  climbed up my
bed and didn't stop there. I continued on until I was up on top of the hill
overlooking the valley.  I  walked down the opposite trail to the town at
the foothill telling everyone,

"I'm passing through, ...just passing through."

I walked across town  through  the  field,  over  another  hill until I came
upon  the  equator  line  and  it  was  hot as  you  know what (censored
word, of course)  and I felt as though I was about to combust,  so  I left
the spot with very little regret, heading for the famous Dead Sea.

I felt queasy.  Would  I  see  a  lot  of bodies floating around?  (It's said
objects float there, you know, because of the large amount of sodium in
the water.)  Not  wanting to encounter the unpleasant aspect,  I headed
South, I wanted to see a kangaroo or two but I didn't see any.

Instead  I  met  up  with  a  desert  tortoise  that  decided  he wanted to
become a pet and followed me home,  but home wasn't there any more;
there was  an  earthquake and  I  could  feel the rumbles and the shakes
and some shouts ringing in my ears,

"....., wake.... you'll................appointment!"
