*Editor's Note: An Awkward Translation about Two Birds Who Went for a Walk and Were Happy
Two birds went for a walk.
These were flying birds and
the two flying birds went for a happy walk together.
During the walk the two flying birds did many happy flying bird things.
Many things the happy flying birds did
seemed strange to the other flying birds and they watched the happy bird's strange walk.
Other birds saw the two happy birds walking.
Other birds thought it was strange that
the two flying birds should be so happy walking their strange way.
The two happy flying birds walking were interrupted by other flying birds deriding their strange walk.
The other flying birds wanted sense made of the strange walk.
But the two walking flying birds were happy.
The other flying birds became angry at the walking birds.
The other flying birds said they couldn't be happy
walking so strange and being happy.
But when the two birds were together they were happy.
They could fly.
They were happy walking, together.
Soon, all the walking began to make the two happy birds sore.
Flying bird feet don't work well with much walking.
It made the two happy birds unhappy to have
hurt feet.
The hurt feet were proof.
The proof the other flying birds needed to show
how flying birds who walk are strange.
The two happy birds sometimes began to fly.
And sometimes they would perch.
And sometimes they would swim.
But they were never as happy as when they walked.
