Lazeroid is a portmanteau word; not that it helps in the further proceedings of this space story, but I will not tell you what two words make up the Lazeroid as it is not possible to write what Lazeroid are physically made so why bother of what they are composed of verbally.
But that was a fact that I did come across during my preparations for the examinations held by Society of International Literary Politics (SLIP, yes I know it should have been SILP but since the founder was slightly dyslexic SLIP stuck on). SLIP is one old organization or so they tell me at the regional office while I wait among millions who like me want to be recognized as the member of SLIP.
I don’t know how old SLIP is, but in one of those heavy leather bound ledger tucked away into one of the corner rooms of the SLIP building New New York (NNY, a completely new city built some miles from NY, the maps look very similar and so do the tourist spots which confused millions of people visiting NNY, but people still acknowledge the presence of these two sister cities) I found GOD as one of the permanent members of SLIP.
Since God is the oldest thing ever to have known to man apart from the wheel and fire, God still becomes the most controversial and exciting thing to have been accepted (say some) or discovered (say others) but the followers of these two theories suffered a major shot when they came to know about this; many argue that the word GOD could have been an addition by one of the pious founding members of SLIP but the idea was immediately rejected as there were no pious founding members.
The examinations held by the SLIP foundation were heavily criticized by The Daily Circus a newspaper I work with; not that it is much of a lucrative career but it does pass the time. Time again is a difficult concept to explain, the other day while we at the SLIP preparations club meeting decided to have time as the theme of debate and all of us learned men and heavily learned women could not give quite a comprehensive picture about the whole thing called time, so we said ‘Time’s up Gentlemen; pick up your hats and we have time to pass’. Though the above anecdote might not be funny for all those who enjoy reading rubbish things on the internet but for a lady living in the inner depths of the African jungle wrote to me quite formally stating that she was rolling over the only table she had at her native home in Zimbabwe and that she could never write without staggering as she always remembered the incident. Below the lady also stated that she very well knew the concept of time and had seen God in his earlier years and other things which would help us explain the mystery of the lazeroids.
The letter changed my life forever and I set out for what was once called the Dark Continent; along with me came two funny looking gentlemen and the daughter of one of them; whose daughter they would not say and I never dared to ask because one of them had mastered the art of throwing daggers on fellow passengers, the girl insisted on bringing a rare duck billed platypus but both the funny looking men refused so she had to bring a blue dolphin instead which was later let into the oceans.
And now begins the journey of our lifetime.
Unfortunately….to continue.
