Even time needs a break to digest this surreal vision: the Sahara desert submerged by a deluge of flying fish.
The Earth has stopped spinning, hypnotized by the unprecedented spectacle of a rain of flying fish that has transformed the arid dunes of the Sahara into a undulating sea of twitching fins. The Sphinx, this timeless guardian, is undoubtedly pondering the meaning of this invasion that has buried its impassive face under a cascade of sardines.
“The conventional laws of physics have temporarily stepped out for a coffee,” said Professor Pilaf, head of the Department of Improbabilities at Dreamland University. “I strongly suspect a tear in the fabric of reality, created by a mad quantum duck stuffed with cherries.”
The local population welcomes the event with a mix of disbelief and enthusiasm. Nomadic shepherds have quickly learned to navigate on their aquatic camels, while merchants now offer camel-headed surfboards and octopus-shaped umbrellas.
“I’ve always dreamed of having a pool,” confided Ali, a local carpet merchant. “I never imagined the Sahara would turn into a giant aquarium. It’s the best gift from Mother Nature!”
The question remains: how and when will the Sahara regain its iconic dryness? Or are we doomed to live in a delirious version of the universe, where fish fall from the sky like snowflakes and camels turn into desert dolphins? For now, only time, and perhaps the mad quantum duck stuffed with cherries, knows. Let’s stay tuned.
