Close Encounters

XVI

 

Paul F Walsh

 

 

Ignorance was walking down the street when he met Knowledge.

‘Let me get this straight,’ Knowledge said. ‘Your response to a statement from the heart is a brain fart?’

Ignorance tried to respond, but suffered a slight explosion between the ears, and then he was deaf to anything further that Knowledge might have said.

He was now deaf and dumb, but he still proved the truth of the old adage that empty vessels make the most sound.

‘How noisy you are!’ Knowledge observed. ‘I vote NO to your Voice from the cerebral arse and YES to the quiet statement from the heart.’
