Respect for the Silthery things

It was a dream. There were lots of teeth. Sharks, fangs, things coming at me. Ready to devour me. I was not terrified. A friend and I went walking through the valley of the slithery things. They were peacefully sleeping. Our walking did not disturb them. I was not disgusted. We were not afraid. We realized that they have every right to be here as we.

Just as everything has every right to be here. It is not my job to slaughter the slithery things. In fact, as I walked through them, I felt affection, love for them. I no longer fear them.
