From A Distance
Perspective was first seen by Arkan Long-Barkum who soon lost his. He noticed people would expand when approached then contract at distance. Some would completely vanish whilst others would suddenly appear as dots. Most people could do both. Those at the other end of a queue were always smaller than him, sometimes tiny.
He believed himself to be the only person who kept a consistent size, and published a book entitled "Why Me?" All those who read it began to ask this question of themselves, which heralded an age of confusion.
We had to wait until The Renaissance period for the truth to be revealed, yet to this day there is some doubt as to where perspective comes from.
"I see 'em small I see 'em big
Some are shorter than a twig
I wonder why
It is not I
Who can dance this little jig?"

AHA, youare really Arkan Long-Barkum reborn! You can't dance because those boots are too big!
No, Deplume is the itsy bitsy midget in the distance and the fellow in the foreground is fifth generation Long-Barkum-Modernday-Hat!
Hello HellGnat.. AHA, maybe I am! As for dancing.. I CAN I CAN dance. I CAN CAN dance! The boots take on their own lfe if they hear "Midnight To Six Man" by the Pretty Things because that's where it's at for them.....::::)
Hello AnonymousWavy.. Deplume is astounded that you can recognize him from that distance, it must be those PissEyeCheekyChips you eat! Glad you also spotted the deliberate Modernday-Hat reference. It's the first recorded Time Hat:::...)
Deplume ... you are stomping on my paws!
I have very keen eyesight ... fine tuned to detail, no carrots. Also a time detective!
One of my boots has just flown out the window. Ah well. 'Early' night tonight, your mid day is bright.. like you two STARS who live near Mars.
No carrots but lots of parrots. A carrot on your shoulder or head would be unusual.
.:.:.:.:.:.: )
Modroom, I love your story. Soooooo medieval... *teehee* And I also love carrots. But not on my shoulder. WE ARE TWINS SEPARATE AT BIRHT. MY BRO!!!!!!
Scary.
MerlinP.. thanks. Anon started the carrots but she's got parrots, so no twin I guess..
BobCat.. possibly so..

You tickle me!I was curious about the Midnight to Six Man, but I couldn't find a music sample on the net :(
YOU two are twins!! I'm in bed with Bobcat };-}
Hellcat is referring to Deplume and Princesse sitting in a tree. I said NO carrots!
Carrots: A good source of vitamins!
Parrots: A good source of trouble!
I learned something here.
...and most of it was scary.
I find the tickling part most scary.
Janet.. I'm glad I tickled you. Now everyone knows!
Catnapping.. Scary varies on how close you are. I keep a reasonable distance usually.
MerlinPrincess.. You are the keeper of the parrot/ carrot knowledge. May it serve you well.
HellCat.. You big Lummox, you're in bed with everyone this week. MOVE OVER!
Anonymist.. Look out, I've become a random tickle maniac!!
