Well written
and thought provoking.

That's interesting ... particularly, the last sentence.

Though the first two make precious little sense to me.

P.S. When you refer to these as "short stories", you weren't kidding.

I remember how the other kids used to say
that old Mister Swenson was the meanest man in town.
But I said I thought he was nice,
that he just didn't know how to show it.
The meanest man in town, I said,
was the mean old guy who lived in the big white house.
"THAT'S MISTER SWENSON!" they said.
Oh, my mistake.
