Trash crosses the road.
Written on it like satire
is the word, “TURTLE.”
Author's Notes/Comments:
True story. It was apparently a bag of turtle somethings. It’s pretty sad when even “the turtle that crosses the road” is actually just a piece of trash.
to me...
This has a whole new meaning on a whole other personal level for me. It is quite comical actually. I read it and read it and then went and shared it with someone who thought the same thing i did. Thoroughly enjoy this little snippit. I even got chills all over my body after I shared it.

Very sad :(
the weird thing was the wind blew it like it really was a living creature crossing the road. Sometimes even the sad moments have a strangeness that builds a perplexing sense of wonder.
Firstly
I followed the joke to its conclusion, read it again to be sure. Either this is a hoot or a stab at turtles. Innocent little turtles. Unless it was chocolate turtles. Then it's okay. Why does the turtle cross the road? To participate in the satire. :D
Yes, but
why does the turtle plastic bag cross the road?
because it’s ever so slightly more nuanced........
nah, you’re right,
a real turtle would have been better!
