That Time the Sky Forgot Its Name
Experimental / Weird & Wonderful
The sky once forgot
how to be blue.
Birds flapped around,
asking the wind
for directions.
The sun yawned,
spilled golden juice
on rooftops.
No one noticed
but the trees—
they stood taller,
hoping to catch
its name
before it returned.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
