Captain Cupcake

It was the afternoon -or was it the morn, when a palpable sadness descended upon me, prompted by the quote, "great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds"- it made me realize that I could move on, maybe, and forgive those who put me where I am.

And then the Captain appeared on one knee. He took me in his arms and whispered, "It's going to be okay. I promise, it will be okay." And then he kissed me, and pulled me up with him and hugged me tightly. Then he kissed me again-and faded.

Later on I became aware of the uncomfortable need of a cupcake. Luckily, Ralph's had a tiny two-pack for me. I devoured one immediately upon my return home-and ate the second after a steak dinner.

I have to go, Cap is waiting-and gorram it! He has not taken off his boots and has his feet on my bed!

I remain,
