The Moldy Orange

    A moldy orange sat on the desk. It was passed by many people and never picked up. As the weeks went on, the mold consumed more and more of the orange. Eventually the peel could no longer contain the slimy interior, which spilled out across the desk. Free to the air, the slime was further consumed by mold until the orange in its entirety was no more, leaving only a dry moldy dust. Eventually, a particularly drafty person walked by, sending the mold spores sailing along his wake, in search of a new orange.
