Its been a week of recovery and birthdays, gradually the cold is ebbing away and day by day I’m improving, mentally and physically, but thanks to Rochelle for keeping this show on the road; A reason to be cheerful. Thanks to Rowena Curtin too, lovely photo, Im wondering where it is, probably America somewhere I’d wager. Anyway, best get cracking, so without further ado.
On Your Marks…
Get Set…
GO!!!
The Lane was a draw for mindfulness, yoga tourists and people who buy dreamcatchers.
Recently a “mystical” Salon had opened; where one could immerse oneself in a gong-bath, have a hot stone chakra massage, and then drink someone else’s urine. Business was booming and Baba B-Lox’s shares were rocketing.
In Angola the lithium mine was churning out the element in spades and the bodies were being buried in unmarked shallow graves, around the back behind the equipment graveyard, the machines rusting with more dignity.
Baba Be-Lox, checked his shares. He could now afford that motorised unicycle from the next door.
There you go, 100 words off the top of my head about the darkness behind this sort of thing.

You always manage to raise a smile, while at the same time pointing out the inequality and cruelty in the world. No mean feat.

As I commented on Liz’ story, light and darkness always walk hand in hand and finding a balance between them is the ideal. Slave labor and bodies buried in shallow graves for anything has tipped into the chasm of evil.

Ok, up until they want me to pay to drink pee. As for the rest, the dark side of human greed. Well done.

Dear Shrawley,
You’ve certainly captured entrepeneurial cruelty in this one. Glad you’re feeling better.
