In my decision to write to a greater extent than (and later rest sane) I accept joined writer Ann Dee Ellis inward a memoir writing group. 3 days a calendar week she gives prompts together with and thence for 8 minutes nosotros write. Please experience gratuitous to bring together in! Here's my 8 infinitesimal endeavor today:
In the spring at that topographic point was an infestation along the Wasatch Front of horses. Big, breathing, wind-swept white horses on billboards. Sexy horses, you lot know what I mean? They weren't similar horses you lot rode at your uncle's farm alongside large teeth together with swatty tails. No, these are mysterious horses, illusive, you lot know. Like the form of Equus caballus on a romance novel. If you lot instruct me.
At root at that topographic point were ii or 3 along the highway. What is this? We wondered.
Cavalia's Odysseo!
(What does this mean?)
"The Most Amazing Show!"
But inward the coming weeks it was every bit though the horses were multiplying together with all of a precipitous at that topographic point was a Cavalia' Odysseo billboard every 5 feet on the highway, on the freeway, on our town roads. Your eyes could non avert, at that topographic point was no missing it. Every infinite of our lives was covered alongside a Cavalia image. It was a deluge! H5N1 flood! H5N1 smothering of advertisements. In restaurants! On buses! Trains! Commercials on our tv! It was daze together with awe! SHOCK AND AWE.
"Wow. What was their advertising budget?" nosotros wondered.
From Brigham City to Santaquin CAVALIA!
CAVALIA
CAVALIA
CAVALIA
The Wasatch Front population of Utah united inward our plight. We were together, billboard bombarded. No condom places. No shelter from the mystical. It was infiltration together with nosotros were the victims, all of us, together.
And together with thence memes started on Twitter.

In our defense forcefulness nosotros supported each other alongside humor. We laughed at the province of affairs on our respective platforms. It was funny. Really funny. People were thence clever. H5N1 feel of pride grew into our hearts every bit a community. We were sharing together with retweeting all the Cavalia jokes. Democrat, Republican, Mormon, Catholic. It was every bit though naught else mattered excepted our shared Cavalia harassment.
But every bit the besiege continued after months nosotros started checking inward on each other at night. "You treatment the Cavalia Situation ok buddy?" nosotros asked our kids earlier bed. "Sure it's funny, but sometimes nosotros express joy away the tears."
I alone knew a handful of people who genuinely went. Paid money. Lots of it. But when you lot asked them how it was, you lot got a foreign apathy. Almost similar they were inward a trance, they couldn't expect at you lot forthwith or give you lot an respond alongside an adjective, "It was....really...and then...it was over." Their eyes going to around distant place.
And then, i day, they packed upwards the large white circus tent on the expressway together with the present was over. The billboards started to live replaced alongside our commons Utah plastic surgical operation obsession. We went dorsum to our corners, our lives, our opinions together with our prejudice. Soon nosotros would forget what it felt to live nether the attack of Cavalia until nosotros would meet an abandoned billboard S on I-15. The sexy Equus caballus giving a side-eye, like, WE USED TO BE SO HOT, YOU AND I.
Months later nosotros watched the presidential election estrus up. The Earth together with our province felt the pang of sectionalisation together with derision. We retreated to our sides.
But for the leap of 2016 nosotros shared a infinite underneath the pollex impress of Cavalia. And nosotros volition e'er enquire ourselves: was it genuinely merely a encompass for a authorities top-secret experiment on communal psychology together with marketing?
Odysseo,
The Most Amazing Show.
