Have fun and your three things today are:
CREAK
SOCKET
TISSUE
Miller walked around aimlessly, searching for the key, the key that would unlock the truth. He was tired of the darkness, tired of the feeling of empty sockets where his eyes once were. Where in this darkness was the tissue, the tissue that held the DNA to rebuild his eyes, make him a member of the “seeing” world? No one had an explanation, maybe that is why Miller felt he had to keep searching. In the darkness, Miller continued, listening to the familiar creak and groan of the old floorboards in his now dark home.

Our words were:
beg, chest, cup, current, curtail, desk, draw, final, half, hound, moth, open, ribbon, shrink, sigh, sleep, small, speech, try, velvet, wind.
Martha knew she’d have to beg
To see inside the chest
She knew there’d be a cup inside
She didn’t know the rest
The current mood inside the room
Was pensive and so grave
Afraid her brother would curtail
The one thing she could save
She pulled a chair up to the desk
To draw a little map
And at the final resting place
Were nice words, not a trap
She knew she couldn’t hound her bro
He’s no moth near a flame
She’d have to be quite open
Not wind up throwing blame
She’d try to tie a ribbon
Like a bow on her request
But by the look on his face
She thought shrinking might be best
And so she sighed a half a sigh
And said it’s time to sleep
Her brother just surprised her then
He said that cup she’d keep
She was so happy she could cry
A small tear ran down her face
She try to say the speech she’d planned
She knew this was the place
Her velvet words fell from her lips
Thanking him so much
She was so happy she could cry
Sweet tears beyond his touch.

HALF
SMALL
SHRINK
Little Mikey Mullen
Was shy beyond his words
His little tiny willy
Was half that of a bird’s
It was so small to start with
So, shrinking it was nuts
And Little Mikey Mullen
Had similar little guts.

Have fun and these are your three things today are:
SLEEP
TRY
OPEN
Every time I try to sleep
my mind goes here and there.
My eyes pop open
my heartbeat races
No sleep for me, I fear.

Is it good enough to know
that you annoy me today
Just like any old busker
who thinks I want to play?
But the button you’re wearing
on your old, awful car coat
It is ugly and awkward
why do you stand there and gloat?
You think that the crop
you hold in your hand
will make me cry out
and there smirking you stand
You elevate yourself up
above everyone and me
As if Friday is your date
but just wait and you will see
That the hunt is still on
Call it hysterics, you will
but how you irritate me
It is not a good thrill
Here is movement away
from the pack with your friend
It’s a pattern you’ve had
You’re a pest to no end.
If I have to go now
and write down all of my words
it is through poetry
that sounds like songs of some birds
Today I’ll go down the street
with a swipe of my hand
Giving you a thump on the head
with the vamp of which I stand.
