JONAH LEAVES SEATTLE
Jonah had had it.
He was sick of crying out
against the wickedness of the city.
No one was listening.
Jeff Bezos showed no signs whatsoever
of donning sackcloth, rolling round in ashes,
and begging for forgiveness.
And why the hell should he?
After 10 years, Jonah had
17 Facebook followers,
and most of those were in the dementia wing
at the Norse Home on Phinney Ridge.
Jonah decided to flee from
the presence of the Lord.
Disguising himself, he got on
the ferry to Bremerton,
but the Lord found him.
Appearing in a vision to the other passengers,
the Lord said "Hey guys,
I think I see an orca in the distance!"
Jonah's shipmates threw him overboard
in an effort to attract it closer.
Jonah found he liked it fine
in the belly of the whale.
It was roomier than
his old micropod in Hillman City.
And the plumbing was better.
