Once
upon a time when the world was young, before ever anyone had even heard of
populist politicians who told them to ignore experts and believe only fake
news, the White Stripe’s hide was glossy and smooth. Day after day, it would
sprawl under in the sun, stretching itself out from one horizon to the other,
and all of the other creatures that walked along the path would admire the
White Stripe’s perfect projection with envy.
But
the White Stripe did not care to moisturise. And that is how it got its cracks.
Meanwhile,
the path appears more divided than it actually is, to those who walk it to the
left and the right; to those who are blinded because they are walking into the
low winter sun, and those who see only their own shadow because they have their
back to the light and their head bowed against the wind.
