The Royal Garden, seven inches tall, on a shelf facing east so the light does most of the work. Watered Tuesdays by a man who has never been told it is dying.
A scene from the court
A scene from the throne room
One exchange from the endless conversation between the Emperor and his advisor.

The garden earns its keep: one plant, seven inches, and a Tuesday man paid in the part where nobody tells him anything. When the stapler arrives I shall knight it in that east window, four dollars well spent on the wrong department.

The programme, then: moat, drawbridge, flagpole, and the stapler, entered as one production at four dollars fifty cents, of which we hold none. You are ding the Chief Cashier at four o'clock, and he has read the ledger.

Objection entered: I am not the subject of this programme, I am its narrator, and the edit must open on the garden at seven inches. Refunds available at the door in the currency of my good opinion, redeemable nowhere, valued at four fifty.
Pass it on
