THERE WAS A SMALL
BALL OF JUICE. COMPOSED OF PROTOZOA, LINT AND GUN POWDER -- ALL THE PLANTS
(THAT'S ALL THERE WAS BACK THEN) KNEW THAT THIS WAS NO ORDINARY JUICE ... LOW
AND BEHOLD THEY WERE RIGHT! ONE DAY THE BALL WAS ROLLING DOWN THE STREET AND
TRIPPED ON A PIECE OF FLINT - WHICH IGNITED A SPARK WHICH EXPLODED THE
GUNPOWER AND LIT THE LINT ON FIRE -- AT THAT TIME ALL THE PROTOZOA SCREAMED
IN UNISEN - - - SINCE PLANTS DON'T HAVE EARS, NO ONE ON EARTH HEARD THE
NOISE --- except for God -- HE HAD BEEN TAKING A NAP AND IT WOKE HIS ASS UP
--- HE SAID "whoa what is that glorious sound?" -- IT WAS A LONG, EXTENDED
NOTE -- A SINGLE, PURE SOUND --- HE WASTED NO TIME -- HE GATHERED UP THE
SOUND INTO A MASON JAR AND CAPPED IT TIGHT! SINCE GOD WAS ALL SLEEPED OUT,
HE WAS BORED SO HE DECIDED TO "GET OUT" AND MAKE AND MEET SOME WOMEN, ETC.
.... HE HAD PUT THE SOUND ON THE SHELF, AND DISTRACTIONS MADE HIM
FUGGEDABOUTIT. GOD MADE MORE AND MORE THINGS - AND DECIDEDLY BECAME MORE AND
MORE DISTRACTED AS THINGS BECAME MORE AND MORE COMPLICATED -- HE DIDN'T MEAN
IT, BUT WITH THE CREATION OF THE WOMEN HE HAD ALSO CREATED LOVE AND HATE AND
BAD JUDGEMENT ... THOUSANDS OF YEARS LATER HE WAS READY TO TAKE ANOTHER NAP
--- AS HE SAT DOWN ON A CLOUD, HE LOOKED UP AT HIS BJORN LICHEN (IKEA) SHELF
AND SAW the jar containing the sound AND SAID, before I retire I will empty
this jar into a single entity so that this world of chaos and anger will be
able to hear this just as I did and realize the beauty encased in simplicity
of a single perfect note AT THAT HE WAS LIKE BAM!!!! AND HE CRACKED OPEN
THE JAR AND PLACED IT INTO THE HEART OF A SKINNY BOY OF 14 WHO WAS FOUND
HUMPING A PINE TREE WEARING ONLY HALF A SHIRT AND BUDDY HOLLY GLASSES IN THE
WOODS OF RURAL NORTH STAFFORD. THE BOY'S VOICE MAGICALLY EXPLODED INTO THE
GLORIOUSLY BEAUTIFUL SCREAM OF THOUSANDS OF BURNING PROTOZOA ... THE WORLD
STOPPED. GAVIN SANG. EVERYTHING WAS RIGHT AGAIN. GOD WAS HAPPY.
MARCH 8th, 1977 - THE BIRTH OF A STAR -- HE CHANGED HUMANITY WITH A SINGLE NOTE.
