BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

YELLOW BASKET?: JESUS EGG with BLUE EYES & THE RABBIT DYED BLUE



"THE JESUS EGG!"





(also comes in brown/not shown)




E.T. PHONES HOME


"Don't it make my brown eyes blue."
-line from a song mother would sing-


Both needing a break, having dropped the bomb,  remembered this wedding picture of mother as we ended our phone conversation.

"JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!"
Our conversation having strayed off course,  just before the nose dive. 

"Now... YOU ....  are making ME angry,"  mother shot back!

"It's not even what I called to talk about!" 
 Was excited;  wanting to talk about the  man who rang my doorbell asking if I owned a gray cat.  The commotion that followed.  Was supposed to have been a fun call. WAS in a good mood.

"Jim Ed! Do you realize, coming up soon, I will be eighty."

"At least YOU got there!"

Followed not long by, "I'm tired. I need to get off the phone," with me agreeing.

Then,
"ALL'S QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT,"
as I sat there analysing what just transpired.


Riddle:
Once you say my name, you hear me no more?




 "Or should I have said,'getting there'?"
 Jolted awake!
 The curse of a riddle undone by an intruder.

"What do you think, Mr. Ed?" 
Having already jumped in my lap as I turned my attention to him
"Do you ever talk to yourself," mother once asked?
"I talk to my cats...?"



 




S-H-I-T
SHIT!
Guess it would depends on which topic WE' were on!

How can I not be a GOD DAMN atheist without a visible disclaimer!  It's... WHAT WE DO!

"JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!"

It's not up to me to get her there, yet she makes it sound as if I've already have.  Well mother should have thought about that before she dropped the

"JIM ED!"
EGG!

Just don't get it!

AS A FACT!

hint #1

"One thing I like about the Digital age: having the dictionary at my fingertips, how easy it is to look up unfamiliar words as I go along reading." "At least....... until, I played my first game of SCRABBLE on the internet. Wow! I had no idea you could spell so many words with seven letters every time." "Now I feel pressured to catch up!"
