Day 243 - Magic Beans

 Magic Beans

Matthew Ryan Fischer

 

We all know magic beans don’t exist. Jack was a fool. There are no beanstalks. There are no giants living in the clouds in magic castles. Fairy-tale stuff. But... what if they weren’t all fake?

No, that does not mean there are floating castles. No, that does not mean giants exist. But magic beans? Magic beans might be another story.

 

I ate a magic bean and turned into a beanstalk

(a short thirty second play)

 

Man 1:

That wasn’t soup!

 

Man 2: 

But there were beans in it.

 

Man 1: 

You weren’t supposed to eat those! Those weren’t beans, those were magic beans...

 

Man 2: 

Magic beans? Those are real? Oh no! What’s happening to me??? I’m becoming a beanstalk…

 

Man 2 falls to the ground, grasping his stomach in pain.

 

End.
