Rectangular Asymmetry

I didn't know what to do when the android fell into the river he wasn't programmed for such eventualities.. neither was I, he quickly became cold flowing water in much the same way as I became a cold flowing stillness, would he rust? would he short out? would I? what was the protocol for pulling electric people out of water? it was all very Tuesday, like empty plates seeing plates full of food, oh the rings left in display cases, but soon becoming Friday, river boulders finally stopped laughing

another fun and delightful read, Clive. Yep, in today's world we don't always know how to handle those 'eventualities. I loved the imagery...it was all very Tuesday...the rings left in display cases. Nicely done. Have a good evening, Sara
