Black dragons
in my cornflakes
jump out of milk
and snap at me
demonized cereal
makes breakfast
like a horror picture show
scarring me
like a kid
puking like a drunk
I want to scream but can't
as nutritious corn
froms demonic head
and reaches for me
alarm rings
waking me for the day
skip breakfast
and run past
my posessed cereal box
but in the back of my mind
I know I can't skip breakfast forver
so one day
I know
I will have to eat my cornflakes.

ahh the inevitable look in the mirror
God I have missed you here Brad

actually this reminds me of being little . . . the cereal . . .
they were demonic cornflakes
(we used to have an ant hill in the yard)
This is amazing, and if the flakes start speaking to you - run faster
*smile*
xxoo
