[ WP ] Everyone in the world has been transformed into a mythical creature ( gargoyles , nymphs , centaurs , etc ) and no one notices except the one remaining human .

At first, I hoped it was something simple, like a psychotic episode. I thought it had been a bird flying by my window. It had to be a bird. That it had neighed at me was irrelevant. It was a bird. 
 
 And it was n't at all possible that Tom at the office was eating a live goat for lunch. Just because he was the office troll does n't mean... 
 
 And Sally? She was always so beautiful. And she had a lovely singing voice. I'll miss hearing her, but I know if I ever heard her again, I'd throw myself out of the window to get to her, just like Steve from accounting and Barry from IT. But when I jump, I wo n't have Barry's horse body to make the jump or Steve's wings to glide over. 
 
 I know it's a simple psychotic episode. It has to be. I've just been staying in my apartment, trying to wait it out. My landlady would n't let me in at first, though. I had to answer some riddles. Which was unusual, granted. 
 
 I ca n't watch TV anymore, either. The local weatherman is using a trident to point at the map and the anchor is playing a lute. I did n't realize those had come back in style. 
 
 It's just a nervous breakdown or something. It has to be. I'll just keep praying that it is, and maybe my neighbor Jerry will leave me alone this time with his stupid lighting bolt and booming voice. 
 
 Please, God, let me be crazy. No, not you, Jerry. Stop eavesdropping.
