NAME:
AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL CAME BY ACCIDENT ON PLANET EARTH. STARTED TO FIND EVERYTHING VERY STRANGE. LET'S SEE HOW HE DESCRIBES THE CITIES WHERE WE “CUSTOMERS” LIVE.
THEY LIVE, ALMOST ALL, CROWDED IN VERY UGLY PLACES, WHICH THEY CALL THE CITIES.
THESE PLACES SMELL VERY EVIL BECAUSE OF SOME CRAP THEY PRODUCE AND SOME DARK CLOUDS THAT COME OUT OF VERY LARGE TUBES THAT IN TURN COME OUT OF INSIDE BOXES THEY CALL THE FACTORIES.
IT APPEARS THAT THEY LIVE INSIDE OTHER BOXES. SOME OF THESE BOXES ARE LARGE, OTHERS ARE SMALL.
NO MORE CUSTOMERS DON'T ALWAYS LIVE IN THE LARGER BOXES.
SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS THE OTHERWISE: IN THE BIG BOXES LIVE LITTLE CUSTOMERS AND IN THE SMALL BOXES LIVE A LOT OF THEM.
IN THE CITIES THERE ARE MANY BOXES CROWNED UP ON EACH OTHER.
IT APPEARS THAT INSIDE THESE PACKAGES THERE IS A TUBE WHERE A CART RUNS IN THE VERTICAL DIRECTION, CALLED AN ELEVATOR, BECAUSE IT ELEVATES PEOPLE TO THE TOP OF THE PACKAGES.
I HAVE NOT HEARD THAT THEY HAVE DESCENDERS, WHICH MAKES ME TO BELIEVE THAT THEY JUMP FROM TOP TO BOTTOM IN SOME WAY I DON'T KNOW TO EXPLAIN.
WHEN IT'S LIGHT, THEY LEAVE THEIR BOXES AND EVERYONE STARTS, GOING ELSEWHERE AND THEY STAY IN IT OF GOING FROM HERE TO THERE ALL THE TIME, UNTIL IT'S DARK AND EVERYONE GOES BACK TO THE PLACE WHERE THEY COME FROM.
I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY FIND THE PLACE WHERE THEY LEFT, BUT THEY FIND; AND ENTER THE BOXES AGAIN.
