Stranger

Stranger is an odd word that has many connotations and implications. It is a much stranger word than we originally thought. What could be stranger than meeting a stranger and finding that you both believe in the stranger than reality things that you believe. Morrison said people are strange when you're the stranger, but nobody is stranger than Dr. Lenny, except mebbe his alter ego Lemme. Strange Attractor is a local band and also a type of sub-atomic particle called the quark.

The questions now arise - should we persecute the strange? Tell me the modern crowd wouldn't have had Edgar Allen Poe locked away well before he could publish The Telltale Heart or the Pit and the Pendulum. Especially if he was still in high school. Tolerance is a demonstration of wisdom through harmony and compassion. Let's face the world with our best face and prove that we can be stranger then whatever it throws at us.

I met this stranger in Kanipe Park this past sunday.
