The conference was only six hours away:
“Here they come,” was screamed. The two men were seen, and so easily, over-shadowing everybody. Their gait alone would have men looking up at them, and then, strangely, unable to breath, the woman too. They were tall. And then the trembling would come later. Around the men; the absurdity, the unrelenting chaos, and this would only calm when these particular men distilled all the angles. Their approach continued. Everybody waited for these two men, above all to see.
One came from a far away land, over seas and mountains to the conference. The other man’s story could be told by looking at the other man –but backwards, or, one came from the west, and one came from the east. And these particular men would meet in the middle of the world or, just a little east of that destination and discuss …business? The world waited with bated breath. The approach continued and it was getting close!
“I’m ready was heard.” The men disrobed and stood naked while holding their arms at a ninety degree angle from their bodies. Also, their legs were a little, just a bit, spread apart. The crew came in. They began working on their man. Everything was working perfectly, going as planned.
Then the fact-checker came in. She was ruthless and paid just to be that way. I don’t think she had to try. She got ‘in her man’s face’! She revved up her engine and was in costume. They went over and over it. And, on her dime, the former heavy-weight champion of the world came in the room. He looked angry. Then, Dr. ‘Feelgood Guy’ came in and did something very inconspicuously, and then quickly left. They were ready.
Our man had the opportunity to speak first. He really connected with his audience:
“If we just use some eloquent, well-used phrases that can’t be argued with, we’ll be able to market our product …at an incredible profit. And, it’s as simple as that.”
So, at the conference, the, ‘Try to Take over the World’ conference, the above words caused such a stir, no other words were spoken for at least ---one full second. And then, well, you must know. The voices blending sounded as if a brush fire had just gained momentum, faster now, and soon you could feel the hot breathe on your neck. “Just use words that can’t be argued with,” the crowd at the conference screamed, “And, it’s as simple as that!”
The masses at the conference screamed this over and over. And, with special attention, or rather exactness, if you will, on the Pause, --- “And (Right here—they enunciated the Pause) ---it’s as simple as that! For them: A mystery was now solved?!?
So equipped with this new ground-breaking marketing tool, that could, quite remarkably, be defined in two simple sentences, they set off to the far corners of their territory, and perhaps, beyond. And of course, the mystery of what they are actually doing remains just that, a mystery. Nonetheless, the two men that everybody came to see have already ---‘spent the money’.
The End
