dancing 'neath the moon

0 posted 2006-07-27 12:35 PM



The cartoon madness
begins as our argument
escalates, I glare blindly
playing out the scenario in my head
as your incessant yapping
fades into a low murmur

Colorful words of anger
Spew forth from berried lips
splashing in riotous display against
the black fury of my soul

The musical notes of your laughter
dance merrily around your words,
flirting with disaster,
"you're sexy when you're mad"

The merry animated notes
serve only to feed my rage
as I send an onslaught of
daggers to kill your dancing laughter

Arms flung wide,
looking contrite,
barely hiding the grin
and twinkling eyes
as hearts and flowers
pour from your lips,
you move closer

only to find the path
blocked by a forbidding
black wall, alive with fury,
you duck the fire tipped
arrows flying towards you

and the hearts break
flowers wilt,
falling on hard,
unforgiving ground in
the desert of my heart

your shoulders slump comically
as you retreat
slowly
stopping to retrieve
the shattered hearts
the weeping, wilting flowers,
near death,
tucking them into your
already bulging pockets,
looking over your shoulder
with huge, puppy dog eyes
welling with tears
lip quivering

the red rage that consumes me
slings one last blade
cutting to your core
and I take great pleasure
in watching you
bleed.
muttering lowly
"hmmph, how sexy am I now?"

I shake my head, blink,
and see you there,
Confusion at my
mumbled question
clouding your eyes
and I smirk
turn
and walk away.

There are times when I really do wish I could do this....but I'm completely unable. Take the hurt and crawl away into a corner, that's MY style.....

That's usually my style too
just slink off and hibernate

but there are those that
know exactly what buttons to push
to really get my dander up
and the only way to
keep my temper in check
(and save the dishes from being
smashed to smithereens)
is to let the little
animation play through my mind

thanks for reading

well Toe, I've always been
of the opinion that
the way to a man's heart
(at least this particular man)
is straight through his rib cage

yea...guess you're probably right...I had this gal that was a good friend of mine that was a nurse...she wasn't really a "feminist" but teased as though she was...she came to my shop early one morning and told me she had the strangest baby born the night before...I asked her what was so "strange" about it...she said it was born with a penis AND a brain!!!.....
