The Guest from Deep Inside.

Sunrise.

Birds chirp.

Trees exhale oxygen.

Suddenly I hear a scream.

I woman was pointing at the ground.

"A snake! A snake!", she frantically cried.

It wasn't a snake. Snakes have removable foreskin.

This creature was way too slimy and slippery to be a snake.

I know what it was. It was an earthworm; disoriented earthworm.

It dragged itself on the dry floor, leaving behind marks of its wet body.

Someone said, "Kill it!".

I didn't.

I just waited until it coiled itself, and inserted a piece of paper beneath it.

It was trying to escape off from the other side. A chill passed by my heart.

I held the paper with shaky hands, and carried it away with the worm on it. I threw it in the bushes nearby and bid him good day.

"It will come again!", my mother said.

"Not on the dry land, mom, not again... ", I smirked.

Things digging themselves out of deep-within can't panic me.

But I, your poor servant, have revealed you to yourself and set you free. Dream other dreams, and better!...You perceive, now, that these things are all impossible except in a dream. You perceive that they are pure and puerile insanities, the silly creations of an imagination that is not conscious of its freaks - in a word, that they are a dream, and you the maker of it. The dream-marks are all present; you should have recogniz...

What a name?!?

It was cold, the sun risen, Respectably high in the sky; White clouds spread around, And some late birds passing by; Carrying him in her arms; There she was, on the bed; She stared at him and then the dad, What a nice gift they had had! His face was bright as the sun, So sugar-sweet was his smile; Starry bright were his eyes, Happiness flowed like the Nile! At last, mom and dad looked at each other, and then their baby. "Wow..", dad whispered ".. now we are mummy and daddy.." "Not just two of us, dear!" mom replied, plucking his nose "It's mummy, daddy, and our sweetu sweetu baby.." "Well.." dad wondered, "We can't call him a baby all the life..!" "????" "He must have a name...!" "He HAS a name... !" "Well, you didn't tell me..." "I did... remember the night at the riverside?
