Puddles.......

When it rains, there are puddles. Everyone knows that. It's a fact of life. And it rains a lot here because it's rainy season. But, in our neighborhood, even when it doesn't rain, there are still puddles. Mysterious-looking puddles. Large, smelly puddles. Slimy, green puddles. Our neighborhood isn't just the ghetto, it's also home to many puddles that are commonly known as...the sewer. Yes, you're right, it's kinda gross. But it's also inevitable. When we drive down the road, we smell it. On days we have to walk we try to dodge it. When I go out jogging, I try not to slip in it. But it's our neighborhood....it's the ghetto, and there's nothing we can do about it, so we put up with it. So if you ever see slimy, smelly, green, mysterious-looking puddles, don't jump in them, not even with your rubber boots on.

And folks, that's just another one of life's lessons.
