Baby Steps

Feb 15, 2007 18:59

In the year 164 there lived, by the stream, a man called Baby Steps. His family was a fierce lot and poor Baby was stuck in the middle of a family that spanned generations. One day by the stream a small little rabbit sprouted from the ground and grew right in front of him. "Hello rabbit" gurgled Baby. But the rabbit stared and evolved into an weeping willow before Baby could get a response. "Why does this always happen to me" sobbed Baby, right before his mother called for dinner. The entire family circled around the table in the little house by the stream and they said their usual "grace" and "amen" before shoveling their lard into their bodies. Baby was not tucked in at night, as he was thirty-four, but he still pretended his mother would. Which confused the rest of the family because he had no sheets, and slept on the floor by hiss great great great grandmother Alice. "Don't let your dreams get you Baby. They got me once and I had a right time getting out of them." And what do you know... They got him... And he slept forever on the floor.
