Racial Moment

A  Racial Moment 
He was the family´s black sheep, which was awkward since his father was 
the president of a racist party. No black people here the grim father said;
they come here with machetes and try to kill us, we have to protect our 
belligerent Viking culture from these begging ruffians.  But his opponent 
shouted your son is a black sheep he has chimney sot on his face and he 
has suckled on the breast of a coloured woman, who are you to lead us?
 Show your mettle your passion to and preservation to white culture, but 
do not mention the Nazi thing it was an apparition, but kill him now. 
The father grabbed a machete from a black teenager, to slaughter his son,
but a Sheppard came gave the father a lamb to kill, and there was great 
jubilation and beer was drunk. Later in bed, the wife asked: did you really 
meant to kill your son? No the father said it was pre arranged, politics my  
little darling. This in his wife´s eyes, was betrayal, odium, felt a delirious 
hatred running like lave through her, she got up and killed her husband 
with a single blow of the machete. The moral of this absurd tale is: don´t 
keep secrets from your wife.
