Futuristic Indianapolis
I can hear the mechanical guts of my chariot groaning as I shift into thirty-fourth gear. I'm driving into the center of Motor Machine City--the heart of downtown futuristic Indianapolis. They're building the road I'm driving on right in front of me. I'm twenty minutes late but I'm pretty impressed.
There's only one goal of Motor Machine City: win the race. Either crash fire skin burns or upper palate bathed in cold glass bottle milk. It all depends on your skill as a driver. I notice the entire city is one interlocking clockwork machine of cars merging into a death spiral interchange. Concentric circuits of street racing tracks are present at every level of orbit. Everything revolves around the obelisk at the geographic center point, the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in the ancient Egyptian metropolis of futuristic Indianapolis. Citizens here may drive any-number wheeled vehicles. They rev their engines and drive in endless circles. One wheel, two or five, any number of wheels at all really. Pedestrians waving checkered flags possess wheels surgically grafted onto both heels and elbows--and sometimes even foreheads.
Indianapolis is home of the freemasonic monument building wheel people. They gave their city as a vestige to the ancient Greco Roman agora by marrying masonic church to federal monuments and public library in an urban commons intended to rival those well known in antiquity. The government buildings are never used for government. The church never has a service. It's all ceremonial. I navigate the labyrinth of walkways while wondering if it's a designated back up capital city if the worst went down in D.C. Perhaps nuclear war or a tsunami? Simultaneously my innermost thoughts are being wirelessly uploaded to a nearby radio tower of a megacorporation computer server. And the man in the moon is kissing the top of the sky above the city. He puckers the lips of his pockmarked face in a sour expression. The night fades out to the sound of a honking horn.
If you look at photos of the mummy of Ramses the Great (Egyptian Pharoh) you can see that he had red hair. Then there's the story of queen Scotia, the Egyptian queen who lived at the same time as the prophet Moses. It's according to legend as well as backed by historical evidence. She married a Greek prince and they fled Egypt due to political turmoil. They eventually made it Ireland and then Scotland which was called Hiberia at that time. Thousands of years later America is formed by people who happen to all be sworn members of freemasonry of the Scottish Rite. They put Egyptian obelisks in Washington DC that look exactly like the ones in Egypt. In particular the Washington Monument was 555 feet tall above ground and 111 feet underground for a total of 666 feet. The guy who designed Washington DC was named Alexander Ralston, he was born in Scotland. He also designed Indianapolis.
Mama Chicken
We left the valley on our way to Lexington, North Carolina. It was me and my old man Dennis. Dennis is my ex-husband. We had our 12 year old son Jonathon, the red-headed stepchild to a 'T'. Tough little red-head kid, but he had stayed behind. So anyway, we had come with an old white 70s Chevy van, a trailer, a mattress, a television, a cooler full of Budweiser, and a carton of Camel cigarettes. We had what little we needed: Cable, water, and electricity. I could hear the wind blowing through that trailer. I can laugh about it now, because it was all so colorful. I was recording it all in my minds eye, the cinematic realm of my memory which I did record vividly. Its easy to play it back now. He went to work the next morning and I drank a Budweiser. I was sitting on the mattress smoking a camel and Jerry Springer was playing on the TV. It was my favorite show. That's back when people were violent and really got bloody. It was a different time. It was like watching wrestling in the morning. So I'm watching Jerry and here comes the guest. And here comes his wife. They're wearing regalia. I found out that he is the grandmaster of the KKK and damn proud of it. And guess where he was from? Lexington, North Carolina. I was sitting there on the mattress and my mouth was dropped open. I could not shut my jaw. Here's the grandmaster of the KKK and I'm sitting right there in his lap thinking, 'They're going to hang me. They're going to shoot me.' I wasn't brought up like that. I grew up in Indianapolis and my mom would hold a picket sign. I used to draw picket signs when I was a little girl. Grrrrr. Mama Chicken started growling. "What am I going to do, what am I going to do?" I separated myself from a lot of people, but I also made friends with a lot of strange people. I met 'Backerds' people. That means backwards. Backwards thinking. It ain't backwards; its 'backerds'.
UFO
Lindsay and Tyler were on a bike ride pushing themselves to the limit, conquering uphill and downhill, and feeling the sweat drip down their faces. Their destination was Bryan Park, where they intended to use the water fountain. As they arrived, they decided to take a break and lay in the grass, gazing up at the stars. Unbeknownst to each other, they both fixated on a large, bright ball of light resembling a star, assuming it to be the North Star due to their limited knowledge of star coordinates. Suddenly, to their astonishment, the light split into two, prompting simultaneous gasps from both of them. Despite being completely sober and invigorated from their exercise, they watched in awe as the two lights moved across the horizon in opposite directions, performing a mesmerizing dance at approximately a 45-degree angle from their perspective. The experience was incredible and left a lasting impression on Tyler. While acknowledging the nearby military base, Tyler emphasized that the phenomenon they witnessed was far above the atmosphere, resembling the size of a star. The movement of the lights was unlike anything they had seen before - slower than a shooting star yet traversing vast distances. Reflecting on the event, Tyler marveled at the weightlessness of stars and speculated about the nature of the lights, considering possibilities such as a comet within Earth's atmosphere, although it appeared to be much higher in the sky. The lights initially resembled a stationary star before gradually transitioning into their dynamic movement, leaving Tyler in awe of the mysteries of the night sky.
