Theater of the Mind: Pretty Princess
15 years ago
It would seem that the grocery store is my muse because for some unbeknownst reason I thought up the following while there. It stars a pained
rabbi-tom who unknowing becomes a kind of muse himself.
*Panel 1*
A female reporter is sitting across from a older, bitter-faced woman in a pantsuit sitting at a business desk.
Reporter: You've risen from humble beginnings to head 2 very successful companies even though they both deal with such a controversial subject matter. But what was it that inspired you to go into these industries?
Woman: It all started on my 9th birthday....
*Panel 2*
A very hung over horse is out checking his mail in the morning. On the way back to the door he takes a knee and holds his head in his heads.
RT: Ohh god. Why did I drink so much last night??
*Panel 3*
Suddenly a little girl is standing right behind him pointing at him and yelling as RT grimaces in pain from the volume of her voice.
Little Girl: MOMMY LOOK!! A PONY!!
*Panel 4*
The little girl has climbed onto his back and his holding herself up by his mane while continuing to shout.
LG: GIMMIE A RIDE PONY! I'M A PRETTY PRINCESS RIDING A PONY!!! LOOK MOMMY I'M...
RT: Get the *@#% off of me you little *#$@!^$#!!!
*Panel 5*
*panel goes the full page length from left to right* A close up of the gaping mouthed horrified little girl's face is seen.
*Panel 6*
The reporter is sitting back looking shocked as the woman says:
Woman: And that's when I knew what my life's work would be.
Behind the woman on the wall are seen 2 posters for "Pretty Princess Glue" and "Pretty Princess brand Dog Food".
