III: The Wee Hours (fiction)

There is a certain time that the 20th Century tended to call the wee hours. Generally it consisted of the hours after the night was over and before the next day had officially been bugle horned by the approaching sunlight. These are the so called wee hours.

Some months there are more so called wee hours than others due to the Earth's rotation around the Sun. Some months there are less. Sundays the so called wee hours start early for an unknown cultural reason.

Many myths in many cultures revolve around theories of what actually goes on during these so called wee hours between the time the fire dies and the time the Sun blows life back onto the Earth, saving us from all kinds of nocturnal, seven feet when erect, night lizard men that suck blood and eat babies. Repave paradise, put up a parking lot. With plenty of lights for safety. Here on Earth, the mere presence of light during the so called wee hours indicates safety. It's because everyone is really scared of what everyone else thinks about them so they only do certain things in the dark.

The truth about these so called wee hours is that they are actually the Weeeeeeeeeeeee Hours. That is because so many magical and incredible moments only happen during the so called wee hours and can't be described on paper or monitor. You have to be there. You have to live within the so called wee hours and operate with intensity throughout.

And like clockwork, as night becomes day, as you watch that great father Sun relieve every species of mothers fear that their baby was snatched during the dark time, magic happens. When the flowers realign, trees spread their leaves, dew manifests to sooth aching bellies, and God allows the Earth to keep spinning one more day and give it another whack, that is where it lives and dies.

The right set of circumstances during these so called wee hours here on Earth could cause an inaudible sense of we between you and God, you and humanity, or even you and yourself. Other known side effects include an entirely audible weeeeeeeeeeeee!!
