Parody

I find myself wanting to write a parody today.

My life is just overflowing with the fodder for one.

Funny take offs on sad subjects, family foibles that belong in white plastic bags set out at the curb before dawn.

Stories with fake names and occupations to protect the guilty and hide them from themselves.

Tales from the dark side that make me laugh so I don't cry and run screaming with the horror of their reality.
