after walking up to this truck
i wondered about all the stories it could tell
where it’s been, who it carried, what happened
no one knows for sure
all that’s left is to imagine.
what a ride it must have been!

*LEARN AND PRACTICE VENTRILOQUISM AND PUPPET SKILLS!
(*This offer recently popped up on my local Meetup Group feed, inviting me to join. It would be one of my worst nightmares. Hopefully, the puppets don’t know where I live.)
‘This group is for anyone who wants to learn to do ventriloquism. After buying a puppet and learning to do ventriloquism, I decided to form this group.We will go through all the basics. I have a guide that will help us and we will follow the lessons. I will only use the skills from the best ventriloquists in the country. This group is something that I have wanted to get together for a long time. This group is open to the public. ‘
noooooooooooooo……..
“here’s something you never hear:
now that i’ve worked through all my emotional issues,
i’m free to dedicate my life to ventriloquism!”

what do a pair of winter boots, a dinosaur, a net, and a light
have to do with each other?
at one point they were all important to someone
now it’s clear they’re not
hoping they’ll be important
to someone else very soon.

something tells me that
perhaps the wrong cat
drank the rescue remedy calming drops
from the water bowl.
one is facedown in a bowl of seashells
while the other, (my intended target)
is busy outside
standing up on two feet
looking in at me through the window
and meowing loudly.
