The Elephant in the roomA Story by johnA very short story
A man walked into a amazingly massive white and windowless room to find
that it was populated with fifteen Elephants sitting on huge chairs with a
massive table stretching from one end of the room to the other. He gazed
at these massive beasts that were staring blankly almost apathetically
at him, they did not blink
or take any sort of break from this gaze making this man needless to say uncomfortable. Their glance never ceased for twenty minutes this went on. The man sat down while the beasts looked at him he was terrified, but had to stay in the room for now the door that would have saved him had vanished into thin air. Finally one of them spoke in a monotone almost alien way that was surely unnatural for even an Elephant. He said with "great bass in the tone of his voice" you are the elephant in the room. © 2012 john |
