The Dentist

I went to the dentist today. Of course, I didn't find it amusing that I had a cavity, or that I would have part of my tooth sawed off, and I know it is important to take things seriously.  However, I have to admit. It was funny to see half of my face sag for the next three hours. Even funnier when I tried to eat lunch.  Despite the humor, I don't want to go back any time soon.

    I wrote something else for today, but it just seemed so spiteful that I could not post it.

The Curse of a Book

The last thing I heard was a slap "Don't worry, I'll be back, When you've finished that"    Turning my head not missing a beat The villain had set down--what? There laid the tale to be told.   Papers on papers, like tortuous fiends. smiled at me with dangerous edges, waiting--willing--for me to read.    "Mother" I pleaded, banging on my door "I'll do anything, everything," I begged just come play with me some more.   Silence, a moment, then again, I heard "Don't worry, I'll be back, When you've finished that."    I hit my head against the wall until the ringing in my head sounded as if bell were singing their painful groans.   When that was done, and no one listen, I took the book to pretend that I was a weight lifter.   Then, I was a track star-- Shot put to be specific. Launching it like a missile.   It came crashing down not far away. Sprawled out li...

Swing, swing, swing.

Let me just say, I don't mind swinging at all, but if you try to take me to the park on 500 West and 500 North. There are NO swings. More than one guy has taken me to swing there. The first time it was cute to seem the guy look around for the swings, and say well I thought that there would be swings here. (Keep in mind that we walked there). So of course being the kind person that I am . I said that there are swings at Kiwanis. Now, a lot of you are probably thinking. "Wait a second! That is a super long walk." Here is my response to that from one of my favorite authors--Jane Austen… “Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn...”  (Persuasion). Though it was a long walk it was still fun. *** However, then we get to the second date. Trying not to be blunt, I ...

The Dice Men

Sky long since darkened the dance floor began rocking Two men sat and watch playing dice to pass the time. We danced like that once. Said one to the other. "Once? I danced much more." The other proclaimed loudly. They roll a 6 and such a slow sweet song played they listened and hummed a long waiting, wishing they could join. Then came the number 5 kicking the music alive. Scorning the break dancers secretly wanting their moves.   A waitress bringing drinks shook the table a bit "Enjoy your game folks" but the dice had moved to a 3  And a man went to his knee wanting a bride to be. Smiling brimming with memories The next man rolled a 4. This song left the men silent a red dress woman with a partner in a tuxedo matching. fell into an entrancing step. So on to the dice the men continued to play. Rolling and watching the evening unfold.
