Oops
The Aliens came, a grand fleet descending to earth. Thousands of ships, all together. They came to invite us to the stars. They gave us means to travel faster than light, and medicine that cured cancer in a day. We celebrated for a full week, ready to take to the stars.
We showed them everything. We taught them baseball and soccer, we took them to the movies, we gave them Rubik’s Cubes, we fed them sausages.
But then we showed them how sausages are made.
Disgusted, they left, taking everything back. Now we sit on an island in a silent sea, knowing the depth of the waters, dreaming of sailing, but unable to build a ship.

how differently everything may have ended up had they found their way to a kosher home?
