Jaykub

his mother crawled from out of the sea. his father emerged from volcanic ash. Jaykub hatched his egg one morning while the folks were watching television. he screamed as all infants did then, bursting the walls of their economical home. his mother tended him with a bottle. she had read breastfeeding was good for babies but gave Jaykub gasoline formula instead so that he would grow up big and strong.
