 an elf escaped
from a hole
near the Chernobyl
fence
he sniffed the air
and wondered at the fence
"this wasn't here last time"
he had been asleep for 327 years
a little nap
 he leaped the fence in a single bound
and was hit by a passing cement truck
a deer sniffed at his broken body
the elf moaned
decidedly in pain
"What in the name of Borominkus was that?!"
He opened the pouch around his neck and rub some star powder on his fingers and licked them
"Okay, that's better."
he jumped up and startled the deer who ran straight into the fence
bounced off and took off into the bushes
"rude fellow, not even an introduction."
he adjusted his shoes and wandered down the road
admiring the crumbling asphalt
