l-12 wakes up

by rhoda penmarq





l-12 woke up
usually, when they woke up, a word flashed into their brain
which would tell them what to do for the rest of the day

and who they were
for that day

today the word was -
orangutan

l-12 was not sure what the word orangutan meant

they got up
and put their best face on
and their running shoes

in case they had to make a quick exit

and went across the hall
and tapped discreetly on the funny man’s door

the funny man did not answer right away
so l-12 tapped a little louder

and a liitte louder
and a little louder

suddeny l-12 remembered what an orangutan was
so they gave up tapping on the funny mans door

and went back to the chinese embassy
with the bag of acorns
that they had forgotten the previous day

now everything would be back in its proper place
the way it was meant to be

strawberry milkshake good one harry
