Boiled Egg Pedlar & People Pet

Boiled Egg Pedlar

You wake up early every day to set your cauldron bubbling. Before anyone else has awoken there you are, walking the market from top to bottom to top again. You ignore the silk sellers and fire sellers and moss sellers, the bubble makers and book lenders and tooth pullers. You don't waste your time watching their shows and gimmicks, their noise and theatre. No, what you have everyone wants and they know where to go when they need it. What you have is eggs.

Escaped People Pet

We exist in a universe of warbling spheres floating and sinking through the quintessential media like wax through boiling oil. Elevated and agitated by the aeons and then made cold again as we flee from its light. How then can we remain firm in our position, knowing there is an abundance above and below ourselves, that we are both far less and far more than so many things? Maybe above our position are other races who call themselves and not us people, who benignly look at us as pets, who are large, of godlike intellect, easily bored and in need of an entertaining and indignant creature to dress up and love to help affirm their own position on the sliding scale of acquaintance. It would only be right.
