The Bullfrog and the Bully.

1/27/17

Lizard liked to pick up tadpoles. Until one day when bullfrog made a decoy.

It looked like a tadpole, but it was really a microscopic time bomb. Lizard stepped on him. Instead of an explosion of matter, there was an explosion in the fabric of time.

Lizard was transported back to the age of the dinosaurs who terrified lizard beyond anything in his experience.

It was only for a few seconds… The time bomb has a second impact that brings lizard back to the time he hatched. This time, however, instead of his parents being absent, they wrap him in little lizard pajamas, swaddle him in beautiful baby lizard blankets. Instead of mother criticizing father for buying inappropriate clothes, the proud parents clothe sonny lizard in new baby lizard jeans and baseball cap.

Little lizard joins the softball team. He’s a decent player in the small league. He has lizard friends at the lizard college. He got a reasonable job selling life insurance, raises lots of little lizards as he became the coach of his youngest son's swimming team.

Somehow this time, it never occurred to Lizard to be a bully.

Bison and bull yelled at frog, who it seemed basically ignored them.

Catching a fly with seemingly no effort, then jumping far out into the lake's path of lily pads, he played great fugues on his aquatic organ, diminishing the distant cries of his big land brothers.

“Perhaps, just maybe,” he thought “they had a point.”

He stopped.

Then he playfully meditated on the color green.
