A little 55 word flash fiction piece extolling the virtues of educating our youth…
“tffffffFFFT,” followed by a suppressed cough escaping the nose.
Passing the joint to Hank 4.0 everything since he was a child, even ag-science at OSU, “I woulda never thought brown pot would be so good. How’s come your neighbors get busted, but you don’t?”
“Because the grass is always greener on the other side.”
I read A Child’s Garden of Grass while I was attending Wright State University. I was a frosh who had just finished up a reference book of sorts about the myths surrounding marijuana and saw this book on the shelf. Thinking there may be some really cool info (I wasn’t wrong), what I got was a very funny book about the typical pot scene, as well as some very good lessons, such as the best way to grow pot.
According to the authors, who by the way claimed they never smoked herb and that all the information in the book comes from their friend Ernie Lundquist, the best way to grow pot is to take your seeds to an empty plot of land, make sure that no one is watching, and throw those seeds as far as you can then run like hell.
Even though I haven’t sparked one in over a decade, I’m sure the book would still be funny, and in some odd way, relevant.

LOL Wonder how come the street names for marijuana don’t include such as Lay About or Lazy River or Lazo… Hey! You know, pot might have some street names like that! So, I’ll just assume as much; I am just too worn out to look.
Just kidding. Tried it; inhaled it; threw it away.

Did Hank 4.0 have an older brother? I think I might have known him, we might have burned a few together a very long time ago.
Your talent for these 55 worders just has me in awe, my friend!
Many years ago someone practiced that method of propagation in the flowerbed around the courthouse. Really funny part is that it worked! Nobody paid any attention to the plants until an out-of-town DEA guy asked WHY they had pot growing at the courthouse.

Woohoo! love it! It took a fraction of a second for my brain to make a connection…grass…oh GRASS! but it got there in the end. Wonder if these 55 worders are therapeutic in their own way?
