modernism

J2 is rewriting the three little pigs for creative writing into the three mousedeer. instead of pigs going out into the world the mousedeer are fostered by a benevolent tigress who tries to protect them from a forest fire for which she is unfairly blamed. she eventually perishes at her charges' paws/pads. like beowulf, remember?

all i say is, yikes. if you don't watch out, J2, you will become one of those writers i avoid for being incomprehensibly intellectual and existentially depressing.

pssst. she is rewriting the ending. the tigress narrowly avoids a contretemps; everybody has a round table discussion to improve communication. i still say, yikes. give me a full-blooded, escapist, moral-free, happily ever after fairy tale anytime.
psssst. coup de grace - the tigress turns vegetarian. ugh.
