End of Summer

The grey cement floor was turning black as the herd of blue-black elephants above fell prey to nature. They landed on the cement floor in tiny drops of blood.

Slowly, at first, then in rapid showers.

Soon the mammoths' dark blood was all over the floor..

The drops landed on the parched floor with the quickness of an anaphylactic shock.

Soon the grey floor was all black. The blue-black creatures were being slaughtered by swords of slithering light and great noise.

There was elephant blood all over the floor. On every house, tree, car and animal.

Soon our whole world was bathed in blue-black elephant blood.

We had all been eagerly waiting for this yearly massacre.

    ..there he stands, his forehead drenched in blood. He closes his eyes, murmers a few words.
    The sword shines with greater joy, acknowledging his thanks...
