WATER
May 23, 2017
When Deems Strobing walked to the end of the pier, he expected to look down and see water. The shock he received was as if a bowl of lightning had been flung in his face. For it happened that upon looking down, he saw a sea of sand. Dry sand. Desert sand.
‘No! It can’t be!’ he howled.
‘Oh, yes it can,’ said his dog, Alan, speaking for the first time ever.
Deems awoke from the nightmare as if diving from an eagle’s nest into a log. His throat was parched. He rolled from bed to fetch a glass of water. He thrust a glass under the tap and turned the handle. Sand flowed. Dry sand. Desert sand.
‘Oh, no! It can’t be!’ he howled.
‘How can a guy sleep around here with all of this racket?’ said his dog, Alan, speaking for the second time ever.
Sand reported back to Water. They had a giggle.

May 21, 2017
Loon: The Lords of the 4th Dimension have seen fit to bring one James Dean to undergo today’s 3 Question Interview. I am informed that Mr. Dean acted in some motion pictures. Tell me, Mr. Dean, when did you have time to invent those yummy sausages while acting so much?
Dean’s ghost (Cocks head to the left. Half smiles): Are you for real, mister?
Loon: I think so. Did you like your eggs scrambled or over easy?
Dean’s ghost (Rolls eyes skyward): Eggs are unborn chickens.
Loon: I know. What was your favorite day of the week?
Dean’s ghost (Touches brim of hat. Turns away): I’ll be going now. Take care. (Ambles off)
Loon , rictus grinning, statue standing, eyes rapidly blinking, continues to be alive.

CALLIOPE TINDALE
May 16, 2017
Calliope Tindale sat in the far corner where she had a clear view of the entrance. She trusted nobody and had her reasons.
The waitress approached and said, ‘What’ll it be, luv?’
‘I trust nobody and have my reasons. Is the egg salad guaranteed fresh?’ answered Calliope.
‘Sure it is,’ said the waitress.
‘I don’t trust you. Bring me a glass of water, and keep in sight so I can see you pour it,’ said Calliope.
The waitress, Dot, went through an elaborate performance obtaining the water. She rolled her eyes at Al when he emerged from the kitchen. She indicated with a slight elbow jab Calliope seated in the far corner. She delivered the water to Calliope.
‘Who’s that guy? I don’t trust him,’ said Calliope.
‘It’s Al. He owns the place, ya know, like it says on the sign outside, Al’s,’ said Dot.
Calliope took a small sip of water and grimaced.
‘This is no good. There’s something in it,’ said Calliope, and she sprang to her feet and raced out the door.
‘Takes all kinds,’ commented Al.
Dot agreed with a nod.
Calliope Tindale fled to the nearest alley. She scurried to a trash bin, raised the lid, climbed in, lowered the lid, sank down, hugged herself, lowered her chin.
‘I trust nobody and have my reasons,’ she murmured.
