Aug 21

Recently the phrase "elephant in the room" has been appearing; an obvious truth or problem is present, but ignored or avoided.  I wonder what an elephant does with a head cold.  Does he stay awake all night snorting and breathing through his mouth?  What substitutes for tissues?  Are his ears destined for congestion?
Not even the sacred fire burns away a virus, gone viral.
The characteristics of a master are three.  She does what she wishes to do.  She does not do that which she does not wish to do.  She can undo that which has already been done.  Would that I could undo that handshake with a contagious elephant.
