ALIEN PACKAGE
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:30pm
What if You put into The Hands
of a 15th Century Native American*
Who had no way of knowing there would be
a 21st —
put in His Hands
an unopened, resealable package of frozen
Wild Jumble Berries?
*Who would have called Himself something different
He’d Freak!
After I wrote this it occurred to Me that the White Europeans of that era might freak too.
