My B+ Card

A Story by Abishai100
"

Narrated 'view' of an American idealist and NFL-fan whose experience with a betraying mail-order-bride reveals a new Earth age 'consciousness' of things doubt/definition.

Injecting this dramedic trading-cards (NFL) piece in-between my Masters of the Universe (Catra) trilogy. Happy Monday, all

"I got myself a very-special Detroit Thanksgiving-football TV culture-town spirits and cheers reflection NFL athlete trading-card, featuring the image/stat of a pronounced Lions RB of African-American ethnicity who made great strides in the game/sport/field. I thought about the world-troubles and intrigue surrounding people(s) of African-descent and how my very-special NFL-RB trading-card was symbol of things modern, Earth-realm, sports-nets, and democracy for know-good qualia (for doubt!)...Facebook-like (ok)."



DANICA: I'd love to be your mail-order-bride, prince...move from Cote d'Ivoire.
ME: How's it like living in the Ivory-Coast, land of chocolates and soccer?
DANICA: You know our African country just won a major region-soccer title!
ME: Well, can't wait for you to get inside the American Dream (with me).
DANICA: It was your American Dream Thanksgiving-NFL trade-card that drew me.
ME: That's awesome, Danica...Facebook-like.



DANICA: Cote d'Ivoire has seen much intrigue and some not so exciting, dear.
ME: I know it, wife...read in college (Dartmouth).
DANICA: Well, maybe you've become my Willy Wonka (Facebook-like).
ME: Why'd you insist I just 'gift' you my Lions-card for keeps, wife?
DANICA: For our (future) son, hubby (Selfie-like).



"Danica took-off with everything, including my college-rings (diamonds) and my very-special NFL-card for Thanksgiving-TV superstitions (damn). She was a con-woman, a real (dark) artist, and she left me thinking how the new (21st-Century) Earth-realm 'culture' was all about incomplete-arts of inventions in social/traffic consciousness for hospitality, learning, complexity...and doubt (wow). However, I got myself another copy/print of that Lions-RB card, off eBay, for myself (for Xmas). I started thinking how Danica was to be my mail-order-bride 'doll-angel' from the Ivory Coast, building an American Dream with me, in my new age of things superstition and controls (for doubt). I thought (now) the Lions trading-card I re-purchased would bring me some fresh/new tide of some thing Earthling-renewals for optimism. I knew (now) that the qualia of the American Dream had (always) been all about...downs (ok)."
