Letter to God

Dear God,
Today Pinky saw that you had plans for him. In fact, he saw a sign that literally said you had plans for him. It was a bumper sticker on a dark blue Chevrolet Cavalier with a cloth top repaired with several yards of duct tape. The bumper sticker said: God has plans for you. Pinky was sure it was meant for him because of the duct tape (and the fact that God was talking about himself in the third person just like Pinky does). So, anyway, Pinky is waiting for the next sign. He is STOKED about this new plan! He hopes it still includes the zoo (hint hint). Maybe it's a total makeover! (A new trim Pinky with good hair would make a striking zoo keeper.) Awaiting your plans, Big Guy.
Love,
Pinky

The Last Paragraph in Pinky's Latest Short Story

Suddenly the rain and thunder stopped. Dora tiptoed to the stove, which was now covered in grease and filth and stench, and looked into the pot. The grease was gone. Most of the okra was gone. But at the very bottom, against the side, was one perfectly fried piece of okra—delicately browned, crisp, but with a jeweled green shining through the cornmeal. Dora knew that soon her husband would return, followed by the Sumners with the citizens of the county in tow. Angry.Pock-marked. Maimed. Destroyed. In that one final moment of private regret, she popped into her mouth the most delicious fried morsel of okra she had ever tasted or tasted since.
