Oh, the Time
A black man has way of manipulating the moment.
In his time, black man Anders Garr never thought he’d possess the power. He walked and stopped and thought…and thought. Everyone and everything around him stopped as well.
The time just froze with every thought. Then he thought again and whole city blocks resumed their activity. He marveled at this.
Then a car struck him. He was still alive and injured considerably. He tried to think. He wanted a doctor desperately. He couldn’t think clearly because he was unconscious. He lived in a dream about living and flourishing. He died without waking to change the time. No one helped him.

Chanda sent home money every two weeks. In a small village in India, she deposited money into the bank account of her Aunt and Uncle who sent her to live in America. The place seemed so remote, almost cut off from the rest of the country. There, a festival took place where participants hurled cow eliminations at each other. The muddy, mucky sense of it had been known for centuries. Locals tied it to an ancient god who they believed restored people’s health with the cow plops. During the festival, thick patties hurled through the air and smushed into the bodies and faces of those rollicking around in the filth.
