Tàlker99 vs. Dr Seuss part 2

At an abandoned old field

On the edge of town

Young Billy sat bored

With his face in a frown

Then he said to himself

In the grumpiest of words

“this town is so boring!”

“yes, this town is absurd!”

“there’s just nothing to do here!”

“no fun to be had!”

“I hate that I live here!”

“it just makes me so mad!”

All at once came a voice

From within the old field

Saying, “boy you just wait”

“till the fun gets revealed”

Then up from the grass

Came a man of short stock

He carried a cane

And jumped up on a rock

Then he said “young man!”

“just look at this place”

“all the fun to be had”

“in this glorious space!”

“I’m planning to open

And run a worlds fair.

With games and arcades

And nonstop fun everywhere

Right here you’ll buy tickets

Then enter into

The world’s first and only

Zoo that pets you

Here you’ll see all the creatures

That are brought from afar

Like the liontoad zimby

From the nation Japar

There will be Breasels, and Drexals

And fang toothed Buhstrakes

And the small shy Vantooth

Which can only eat cakes

Further into my fair

And you’ll see the first ride

The world’s tallest and fastest

Water spout slide

Ten thousand feet to the top

Quite the sight to behold

A marvel in making

Or so I’ve been told

Thirty minutes to walk up

Then a minute back down

Think of the joy

It’ll bring to this town

Over here in this part

Of this empty old field

Will be such a carousel

With secrets concealed

At first it goes slow

At a leisurely pace

Then faster it goes

You’ll feel your heart race

If rides aren’t your thing

There’s still plenty to do

Theres tons more to see

It’ll be up to you

The world’s greatest places

Will be at my  fair

Each with their own tent

All made with great care

You’ll learn of great cultures

And rich histories

And of people and places

With lost mysteries

My world’s fair will be

The grandest of things

I can’t wait to see

All the joy that it brings

Then he said to the boy

Can you envision it there

So grand and majestic-

My amazing world’s fair

But Billy just turned

And started back home

No imagine to speak of

So he played on his phone

Bible 2 announced

Santa Monica, California

God, in all his Glory, announced Tuesday that he is planning a sequel to his best selling novel of all time, “The Bible”, titled, “Bible 2”.

God took the time to sit down and tell me what the sequel is about and why exactly it took hundreds of years to complete.
“The story will take place ten years in the future. Jesus, now living in a Tibetan monastery and studying the wisdom of Buddha, has become more self reliant and sure of his place in the universe. He is also happily dating a local Orthodontist named Kristen.

It seems like the prodigal son finally is at peace with the world around him so he starts to let his hair down a bit.

He also finds he rather enjoys being out of the limelight. He especially loves living in a place that could care less who he is and enjoys just walking around town and not being constantly asked for a miracle.

All those years of carrying the sins of mankind were a bit much for him and this Jesus is a much more war torn and weary savior.

Gone is the Jesus of old, the forgiving Jesus if you will….no, this Jesus is much more cynical and distant.

Of course the little happiness that he does have is fleeting and trouble comes in a hellish way when the Devil comes back to settle a score.

Jesus must then gather up his posse of apostles and fight to save all he loves.

Its part redemption tale and part action adventure with a bit of romance thrown in for good measure.

The reason for such the long wait was simple….I had no idea where to go with the story. (he starts to laugh, a big, booming laugh that causes the lights in our office to flicker on and off) Once I had the initial plot line though it just flowed out of me and I wrote it within a week. I know the fans will love it.”

Look for this and Gods upcoming autobiography, “The Divine Light and the Creation of Me” coming this year, both from Bantom Publishing.
