The first Twizzler is, literally, beside itself. As approximately one third of the Twizzler clings, or possibly sticks, to the storm drain grate for dear life, two thirds of the Twizzler is now located on a a sidewalk approximately half a city block north of its original location.
There, the Twizzler is neatly divided into two more thirds, one which retains its original form, the other shredded and laying in uniform pieces beside it. Why, and how? I know not.
A mere two feet away, the second Twizzler remains resting on the sidewalk, looking decidedly less flexible and lighter green than yesterday. Happens with age.
Adding to the scene is a three-quarters eaten apple, in an advanced stage of shrivel, just a few more feet north of the Twizzlers. Deposited in the last 24-hours, the apple nonetheless appears to have been partly consumed at least three to four days earlier. One wonders.
Why the sudden accumulation of moldering, partly consumed foodstuffs on a city street? Litterbugs, Aliens? Misinformed composters? Hard to know. I will keep you posted.
Shouldn't...but Do
