Elmwood Weirdos

Elmwood Weirdos

A Chapter by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

About me and my strange Misfit friends: Bulldog Bey, James Bey, Mandy El, Chronic Chucky Bey, Katie EL, Love A. Bey, Chris “the Kid” Bey, Topher El, Isa El, Captain Renee El, and Kerry “the Dark" Bey

"

Who were the Elmwood Weirdo’s?

We were the truth seekers of night

The Catholic kids who loved Islam and Buddhism

Constant questioners

Tweaked out philosophers who partook in hippie love

Wicca fire warmers

Tough geeks

We were the ones no one wanted to understand

YES!! I totally understand! Well...no, not really, because even out of my misfit friends (actually, some of them fit pretty well) I've always been the strangest (as far as I know). The last line is great, establishing the fact that not being ABLE to understand someone or thing is completely different than putting forth absolutely NO EFFORT WHATSOEVER to understand said one or thing. May the Elmwood Weirdos live on!
