Swami Deva Coconut is standing in his bamboo house watching the waters rise around his ankles. It has been raining constantly for four days and the sky is still grey and wet.
As the water reaches his knees, Coconut climbs onto his suitcase, and when the water reaches to his knees again, he goes outside and climbs onto the roof of his bamboo house. Just then, Ma Mango Milkshake comes past on a small raft.
"Come on, Coconut!" she calls out, "come for a ride!"
"No thanks," he replies. "I am just going to wait here, and watch."
"No thanks," he replies. "I am just going to wait here, and watch."
Slowly, the water climbs up the side of the bamboo house, and starts to wash against Coconut's ankles again. Swami Cleverhead, the group leader, rows up in a small rowboat. The boat is leaking water fast, but Cleverhead seems to be managing.
"Come on, Coconut!" calls Cleverhead. "Let us go out of here!"
"No thanks," replies Coconut. "I'm just waiting here and watching."
"No thanks," replies Coconut. "I'm just waiting here and watching."
A half an hour later, Coconut has water around his neck, on top of his bamboo house. Just then, Captain Cliffski and Captain Kurtski, the famous Polack pilots, fly over in a borrowed helicopter. Captain Cliffski sees Coconut, and leans out of the window.
"Come on now, Coconut!" he shouts, "or you are going to be drowned!"
Coconut waves back, "I am just waiting here and watching!" he shouts.
Coconut waves back, "I am just waiting here and watching!" he shouts.
Later, somewhere in the realms of the universe, Swami Deva Coconut meets Osho Rajneesh, and he seems really pissed off about something.
"I waited and I waited, I watched, I witnessed," exclaims Coconut, "and you never came to rescue me!"
"My God!" says Osho Rajneesh, "I sent you two boats and a helicopter!"
