The Early Morning of Chandler Wilburson
“Tick tock, Tick tock, Tick tock”
The grey rustic clock sputtered
Sitting on a forest green recliner with arms resting on each side
Chandler slowly sips his Earl Grey tea
In the corner of his eye, an orange ball emerges from the kitchen
It ended up being Mr. Whiskers, Chandler’s tabby cat
With its majestic orange fur coat bouncing up and down as he ran,
Mr. Whisker leapt into the vacant spot on under Chandler’s arm
A smile formed on Chandler's face as he gently scratched the cat’s ears
A few minutes later, Mr. Whiskers leapt from the green recliner
And went on his own mystical adventure
Chuckling at the sudden departure, Chandler picks up his newly printed newspaper
Big boldened black letters read:
NEW, AFFORDABLE CARS AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW!
As he flipped through the catalog, one masterpiece stood out to him
Centered in the middle was a powerful jet-black Dodge
Oh, how Chandler adores the loud ferocious roar of the Dodge
His current car, a quiet neon red Toyota Corola
Was one of the least complex cars in the world
A simple car for a simple man
However, a simple man can have complex dreams
Once the morning ritual of reading the newspaper was done,
Chandler put on his brown bomber jacket paired with a black fedora paired and black aviators
Opening his door, he was greeted by an icy draft of wind
A light powder of snow has covered everything around the city
As Chandler opened his Toyota's door, John, Chandler's neighbor, waved hello
Naturally, Chandler tipped his fedora and pulled out the driveway
Some people say he works for CIA
Or even the FBI
The reality was that he worked at a shoe factory, and dressed sharply for every occasion
