Bubble Wrap

Do you think it inappropriate? To exchange ones husband for some perfectly devine Time consuming Playfully popping Bubble wrap? You see, Friday night with at least one square meter of the stuff I could be amused I could not be bored Not lonely....... Un angry That yet again he has failed to bypass the Public House His Friday home Hense yet again I'm stuffed....alone Twiddling my fidgeting fingers and mind Creating all kinds of scenarios which are Far less than kind Like murder beneath the patio As battered fish upon the floor Like turning up uninvited And creating Mary Hell by pubs door But if i had some bubble wrap I am, so easily entertained I'd twist contort the compliant material Imagining twas his remains ....

oh! so creative! I love being inside your mind - well crafted images and thoughts - love "murder beneath the patio" and how you describe this lonliness and neglect, wishing you were the priority. the comparison to bubble wrap - so awesome! what made you think of it? I love the way you made it into the perfect analogy :)

Karen - Your creativity is wonderful. "battered fish upon the floor" really got me. Looking for bubble wrap right now - Better than meditating, valium and ice cream (maybe not ice cream). GREAT poem. love, Kathy
