Storyteller

The storyteller is elegant,
He is charismatic, unfaltering, personable,
And a Jew with dreadlocks.
"Come warm yourselves by the fire."
Tobacco is American, smokers are agitable, erratic,
And legal.
Marijuana is foreign, communist, and it makes people happy,
Everything contrary to basic Americana.
Americana Marijuana.
His name was Jordan.
"Can you tell us a story?"
"Sure, what kind of story?"
"Like a fairytale."
"What kind of fairytale?"
And we describe and describe and form our own story,
He just words it well.
