Doyle;
Think a Fargo like scene in the Pacific Northwest, a guy given super
human anger because of depression, at the end of the checkout line
making a point to the bagger.
Depressed guy sez;
Don't put the vodka on the cherry tomatoes Lefty.
Bagger;
Don't call me Lefty, think of this as an existential choice.
Depressed guy sez;
I've reached the end of my rope and I'm gonna take you with me. Let
me apply torque to this arm, rotating rapidly back and up, ahhh
chicken wings. Blessed relief from depression. Go ahead and writhe,
see if I care.
General melee occurs. Lots of shouting, tasers deployed, fruits
spilled on the floor, people scream 'he's got a gun', a hail of
bullets and depressions strikes again. Wreathed spirits spilled upon
the dirty grocery floor.
In the offices of the Disability Rights Movement a phone rings. A
blind woman picks up the landline phone and says "Happy to hear you,
how can I see you?"
A paratransit van lumbers up to the super market handicapped parking.
A dark figure in a power wheelchair speeds down the van ramp and off
to the store to adjudicate the rights being trampled.
Speaking with a computer voice the expert rasps, 'another suicide by
cop'. Got lucky again. And you sir bagger, a dislocated shoulder is
temporary, not permanent disability. You have no right to complain.
Just because he claimed he would rip you off doesn't mean he could, he
was depressed and sez anything. Gotto go. Simple justice.
thanks,
Doyle Saylor
