Tae Yoon: Life from 2006-2021

a conversation between two wildflowers on a sunny day: part 1.

"what do you mean, 'you just like it?'"
"i just do."
"but how? how can you find pleasure from something like that? it's gross and incorrigible. have you ever thought about how it affects all of us around you?"
"shut up."
"'shut up?' this is how you talk to me because i'm trying to help? this is what you say to your best pal?"
"roger, i need some air. can we go for a walk?"
"'a walk?!' we're wildflowers for god's sake. we can't walk anywhere."
"fine, then let's go for a sway. the sun is killing me today and there's no breeze. i need to stay mobile."
"then we'll sway-and-talk. alright, so then what do you have to say for yourself?"
"okay, it was a mistake. i'll never do it again, i'm sorry."
"hold on, hold on. you were swaying too fast and i couldn't hear you. what did you say?"
"i asked about stella, has she been around recently? what's the latest you've heard on her?"
"well, you know jerry, right, the dude who was only lets the hummingbirds eat his pollen? well he heard from petey, the rock, that stella's been quite the talk of her prairie. sorry, i'm going to whisper this because i've been sworn to secrecy, but i heard she's got some weird uv allergy. in fact, she's had it for a while and refuses to be seen because her antennas are starting to look all weird. have you ever seen a ladybug with aberrant antennas? it's quite disturbing if you ask me. okay, can we stop swaying now? i'm getting tired and i think a breeze is starting up."
"stella would be hot even without antennas."
"carl, there you go again. now, back to what we were discussing before, how can you 'just like' being under fluorescent lighting? don't know you about jerry's grandma? it was only about an acre away from us where she died when these idiot campers settled right next to her. it happened really fast and she was a goner in no time."
"have you ever felt the rush of being under fluorescent lighting? you can feel it right down to the pedicel. it's awesome---it makes me feel alive."
"man, you have issues."
