There once was a cow, he stood tall in the hardware aisle. A male, a he, walked into the home depot, he saw the cow. The cow saw him. They had seen each other. The gaze between them was strong and filled with tension, anger tension. The male tried to shop gracefully, uninterrupted but the cow was determined to look at him regardless. He also broke his neck while watching him look at paint swatches. The male tried to not engage in eye contact, but it was hard. The black, beady eyes stuck him to his soul. He would turn for a solid second and the cow would inch noticeably closer. It was horrifying. The male nonchalantly walked the away until he heard a scream from the wood aisle. He rushed over and saw a body, snapped in half. Blood ran from their ribcage making a pool of organs and blood. The muscle appeared to have been ripped to shreds and eaten by something. The male looked at it in horror, a body, dissected and disemboweled. He resisted the urge to throw up. He ran to the washroom where from his peripheral vision he saw a figure. It was tall, black and white, except from the dripping blood from its mouth. He turned rapidly and saw nothing. He spun around, he felt insane. How is this happening? It's Home Depot! He continued to the washroom, looked at himself in the mirror, dead in the eye. He threw up. His stared at his hands, slowly, he realized his skin was growing long hairs. He looked back up at his face, he was unrecognizable. His eyes turned black; he saw his pupils expanding. He was panicked. His skin continued to grow long hairs, they expanded and turned black and white. Then, he looked behind him after he heard a blood curdling scream. The cow stood tally above him. Eyes filled with rage, mouth filled with guts and blood. The cow began screaming, loud and petrifyingly. The male couldn't do anything but watch as the cow walked closer and closer to him until it went dark. Then... he woke up... in the hardware aisle... at Home Depot. Moral of the story: Go to Lowes Hardware Store.
