Vanilla

by Tyler_Matthew

Some people are just so normal they're weird. Crisp suits and coffee in the morning, no gin and pajamas, how freakish. When they get mad, they get productive like insects, rather than breaking this or that. Everything planned, paid on time, reminders posted on the walls. No kinks in their hoses, no brown on their noses, hair carefully parted in just the right place. They don't make art, they buy it, hang it on the walls and then throw a party. How lonely, unfulfilled, how strange their lives must be. My theory is they've yet to find anything worth going mad for.
