Look at the Seeds Growing by Yaphet Murphy

Wow, where did all of these people come from?

Two months ago, I had a small band of warriors. Now I have an army.

Two months ago, I was wondering if we had lost all of our inducted members. Now the warriors are coming back home.

Two months ago, I was talking about new recruits. Now I’m talking about setting up bands of Green Berets.

Two months ago I was wondering who our alumni are. Now I’m walking around with their business cards.

Two months ago, I was wondering if we were ever going to get a decent meal out of this outfit. Now someone’s pushing a plate of food every time I walk in the door.

Two months ago I wondered if the lieutenants were really getting it. Now I realize they knew what I was talking about all along.

Two months ago I thought I was going to have my hands full. Nowadays I travel full of hands.

Two months ago I wondered if this thing called Sigma really mattered. Today, it’s a different matter.

Two months ago,

two months ago,

two months ago.

What the hell am I going to have on my hands two months from now?
