The Stranger
Laurie Anderson

A stranger came into our town at twilight.nHe said he had chosen our town out of all the other towns.nHe said, “Roll out the red carpet.”nHe said, “I’m the one you have been waiting for.”nHe said, “I’ve come to serve you--no questions asked. So let’s make a deal.”nHe said, “So put her here. Let’s shake on it. Give me five.”nHe said, “I’ve got a five-year plan. And we mean business. So put her here. Let’s shake on it.”nnIt’s the one with the pool.nIt’s the one on the corner with the big garage.nIt’s the one with the fir tree in the front yard.nLeave the lights on. It’s twilight.nnWhy do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not see the log that is in your own eye?nOr how can you say to your brother, “Brother let me take out the speck that is in your eye,” when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye.nYou hypocrite! First take the log out of your own eye and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother’s eye.
