THE DAFFINESS OF DILLS
FROM DOC’S LOON FABLES 21
The Lizard of Gauze
Once upon a time a cruel carpenter and his savage beast set out to find and subsequently steal the Cube of Flavors from the Tree of Pensive Contemplation, which, according to legendary lore, grew somewhere east of the Great Chambered Mountain of Ken. Unfortunately for the evil pair, they fell into a Spanish ravine within the first half hour of their journey and were consumed by the Thunder Bull Lizard of Gauze. The Lizard, on the other hand, scuttled quite merrily across river and dale and roy and trigger, finding and subsequently consuming the Cube of Happy Flavors and the Tree of Pensive Contemplation before moseying back to live forever in the Great Chambered Mountain of Ken. Ken was quite perturbed, and rightly so.
Moral: Flavored contemplation is hard to resist, as is a comfortable chamber in a mountain.
A SENTENCE BY SAMUEL BECKETT
One day, is that not enough, one day like any other day, one day he went dumb, one day I went blind, one day we’ll go deaf, one day we are born, one day we shall die, the same day, the same second, is that not enough for you?
This is from Waiting for Godot, a play the loon rereads at least once a year in spite of the tennis quaquaquaqua.
