The Dandelion Puppet

I saw it lying next to a Mars bar that was cut in half.   I didn’t suppose anything about the half but the dandelion it shared the ground with I did wonder about.  I picked it up and it was limp like some rich dude’s handshake.  I put it in my pocket and went back to the bar.  I had left the bar for some reason and forgot why.

I saw this pretty girl drinking with her back to most and I knew she was pretty because I was optimistic and this guy put his hands over her eyes and said, "Guess who?"  I hate that game and she did too because she said, "Your hands stink like cigarettes," and he said he didn’t smoke.

I saw him earlier with a coffee mug full of cigarettes and he lit each one and then put his hands around all of them and tried to smoke it like a hamburger but gave up too easy.

I pretended to bump into him on accident and slipped the dandelion in his coat pocket.

I went to play Golden Tee but the ball had carmex all over it and then I remembered I wanted pizza so I left and got a slice and then came back and the guy had the puppet (I forgot to say that earlier.  It wasn’t a real flower but a puppet one) on the floor.

I said, "Hey you dropped something."

And he said, "What’s the seven?"

"No, I said you dropped something."

"What’s the seven like?"

"Huh?"

"What’s the prophets say about the seven like?"

I pointed to the floor and said, "YOU DROPPED A DANDELION PUPPET ON THE FLOOR.  IT WAS IN YOUR POCKET."

"The prophets are seven up, bro!"  And he shook my hand all limp like.
