the silly people try and go boo **(tired content)* by Kalikala Smithi woke up to a sound
(how freakin profound)
and it startled me with it's pulsation.
my roommate said, "Up!"
so i gathered my stuff
and all my worldly possessions.
we ran out of the house
disturbing the mouse
who was still running around from my dream.
we saw from the road
a shimmering toad
that turned out to be a truck from the station.
the men that came out
said, "whoa!" with a shout
and proceeded to defend their nation.
they studied the mark
was it from a spark?
they speculated what happened.
while my roommate and i
we wanted to die
getting quite a frosty sensation.
we wiggled our toes
we wiggled our nose
as they tried to find a culprit.
an hour later:
they let us back in
with a smile and a grin
and told us to go to bed.
we thankfully obliged
and took our cold lives
to a much warmer destination.

Posted by Jason Wardell on 01/07/04 at 08:42 PM When I lived in a dorm, one of my greatest fears was that the fire alarm would go off while I was in the shower or something... it happened to four of my friends. It did wake me up once, though, but I was supposed to be in class so I guess I deserved it. :) |
