The other day I'm standing around in the playing field for some reason. And there's two metal bars there lying on the grass, what weren't there the day before. Long ones, round tubular ones. That's two perfectly prime pieces of iron, who just leaves stuff like that for no reason? It looks so useful. Although I can't myself think of one just now. I wonder if I can drag them home.
And I'm thinking about that, when I notice this flock of Canada geese flying by. I like flying geese, because geese down here on the ground are sure some mean-ass animals. Anyways, this bunch of geese is flying by in their V-shape. But these ones get it wrong somehow. They're flying with the point of the V in the back, and the arms of the V ahead. Backwards formation. I never saw that before, but I guess everyone gets things wrong sometimes, or forgets how to do stuff. Like, I forgot how to open my trick-latch trunk the other day and now I can't get at my clean clothes. But animals don't usually screw up in that way. So it's pretty weird. I'm sure they'd be pretty embarrassed if the other geese pointed it out.
And then, one of the geese gets brought down by an arrow, and I didn't see that coming. That's when I notice a couple of centaurs at the other end of the field high-fiving each other, and the one has a crossbow. Looks like a zodiac Sagittarius, except wearing a wool cap and and a Tampa Bay Lightning jersey. Pretty good shot, I got to say. I wonder if they're going to eat it.
