EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT EXPLORING OUTER SPACE, YET CLOSER TO HOME WE REALLY NEED TO GET TO KNOW OUR DEEPEST OCEANS, OUR DENSEST FORESTS, AND EVEN THE WONDEROUS INTERNEURONAL CONNECTIONS, THE MYRIAD PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL FEEDBACK MECHANISMS, AND THE CONDITIONAL CIRCADIAN BIORYTHMIC FUNCTIONS OF THE HUMAN BRAIN, because the HSR is currently scrubbing up to surgically blunt-dissect away any extraneous intellectual fat tissue, that way, your “doctor, really, I don’t want to feel a thing” smile will unfailingly be profoundly anesthetized!
Quick background: The
dentist, with his secret, yet seemingly dangerous-to-possess, baby tooth cargo,
is transported yet again, this time to a mountain top cave, where he must bring
out the true, unlimited powers of this special deciduous tooth!
I’m carefully walking deeper into this cave, protectively
clutching the secret baby tooth pendant that got me into this mess in the first
place, and which magically appeared around my neck, when I initially started
this unwanted journey.
I’ve got to get past any obstacle and find the chamber up here
in this mountain top, that will receive the focusing rays of lights from the
three important, rarely-aligned, suns.
And in that chamber, there is a mortar on top of an Altar. I
am to place the baby tooth in the mortar, and crush it to bits with the
hammer-like pestil next to it.
It isn’t known to me what will happen next, but I must do
this, if I am to have any chance of making it back home.
Suddenly, parts of the cave walls are shaking loose and
falling.
Something’s barreling down the cave, approaching me fast.
I slip into a deep
crack in the cave wall, to tuck out of the way.
Quickly, a big fiery ball, almost as wide as the cave
itself, dangerously rumbles past me, and on out of the cave’s mouth, crashing
way down below with a deep, low rumble.
It’s pitch black in the cave now...
I think I’ll hide in this recess a little longer, because I
sense that there are more dangers yet to come…and soon!
Right after finishing that thought, a bunch of electrified
green balls start to come my way. They are the size of baseballs, and are ping-ponging
off of the cave walls, shocking the rocks as they bounce off of them.
The first few whizz quickly and fly right past me, but more
are coming and the intensity of them is growing, which means that they are
eventually going to get to me, and then I’ll probably be a goner for sure!
I push myself deeper into the crack of the wall…
…and work my way through the wall, and into another cave!
I step down on to the floor, and start running to my right,
as fast as I can.
Running around a sharp bend in the tunnel…
…I suddenly stop dead in my tracks!...
There’s a large spider-like monster that has electric zappers
at the ends of each of its legs.
I have no chance against this beast, or so I think.
The spider quickly slings two legs out, one on each side of
me. The crackling leg tips then get closer to me. I feel the hot heat of the
popping and hissing of millions of volts!
I can’t even move my body to get away. I’m paralyzed by the
force field.
Dang!
Unexpectedly, and at once, a loud and deadly sound of a
sword slicing right through some meat, shocks both me, and the spider!
The electrical tips of the spider die out, as the spider
slumps to the ground, dead.
A snake with a sword in its mouth is what slit the spider’s
back and killed it!
The snake victoriously rises above the vanquished spider, draws
back on its tail, then throws down the sword in front of me, and hisses loudly.
Then it speaks, “Here, take this sword. You must make it to the chamber, now.”
“If you complete your mission, I will transform back into
what I once was…and go back with my family on Earth!”
“Here…this is the way!”
The snake rears back its tail and whips it to crash a hole
into the ceiling, and brings its tail back down, so that I can be lifted up
with it to the hole.
Grasping the baby tooth pendant in one hand, and the sword
in the other, I struggle through the opening and reach up to solid ground and
stand up.
A voice around me says, “Go the left way!”
I run as fast as I can, then turn a corner, and stop
suddenly again, almost losing my balance, over a cliff-deep ledge.
“This is why my Momma told me not to run!” I thought to
myself!
I look across this very wide cavern, and in the middle of
it, perched up on a tall thin rock, is the Altar with the mortar on it. The
penetrating rays of the suns are starting to merge…my time is short!
“I have to get across the air to the altar!” I scream to
myself, “but how?!”
I better find a way quickly, because, right now, coming down the cave close behind me is a loudly-shrieking swarm of some deadly…
TO BE CONTINUED…
May you have many…good things come to those who wait, but
all prerequisite sequences need to be engaged and ready to pounce…for safety’s
sake, should “Sunday Driving” only be done on Sundays…how many times has your
cell phone “saved” your life?…smiles!
