After The War is Over (bp coyle)

Daddy is off battling the nasty bugs who want to take over Earth. He is fighting for our survival. Daddy is a hero.

We listen to the news each day to see how the war is going. Recently it has not been going well. The bugs have taken over Pluto.

Daddy is stationed on Mars so he is far from there.

‘Ha!’ Mommy said, ‘they can have Pluto. Pluto isn’t even a planet. Good riddance to it. We had our honeymoon there and the whole place sucked.’

Mommy had been drinking the brown stuff that smells bad. She drinks a lot of it these days. Most of the grown ups do.

The President of Earth gave a talk tonight. ‘These are dark days,’ she began.

Mommy scoffed, ‘tell us something we don’t know.’

‘But we will come though this,’ the President continued. ‘The price will be high but the reward will be worth it. We will emerge from the darkness as a united species. Human. Regardless of color, creed or any other difference. We will unite to win. We will stay united.’

‘Sure,’ Mommy slurred. ‘As if we get to live to see that day.’
