Friday 55s
55 words. One story.
Here goes another.
Chaijo Shujii Choummia. The words come out in cadenced waves. Lithely. Smoothly. Unhurried. undisturbed save for shriek. Faint but anguished.
Hu your days are numbered. Let my people go.
Heckler. Interrupter of symbolic speech. Upsetter of official visit. Hu speaks on. Bush smiles on.
Secret service clears disruption away. Photographers click away. Freedom exits out

Wow, that's a good one. I see you did a little 'Moses and Pharoah' reference there. Strangely, it seems so so apt to compare Hu Jintao to Ramses. I guess they both had an obscenely immense amount of power over the people they were ruling...I don't expect miracles, but I can see the Chinese people want a lot of things to change in their country.

Oh yeah, right? I think the more your basic needs are filled the more you are going demand rights. It still boggles my mind that their internet is restricted and their journalists get prison terms??
Good story. Very appropriate. I think mine was not all that good. Oh, well.
Thanks paperback.
M.L. That 'oh yeah, right?' was meant to be 'oh yeah. you are right. totally.'
