The Talk of the Monsters Ball

I went to the Monsters Ball. I must have been 7 feet tall. I was wearing stilettos so steep. They were really hurting my feet. You will never guess what I wore. And not to tell it I always swore. But I guess I'll have to confess. Someone saw me and now it's a mess. I was wearing a red sheer gown. And the top was halfway down. Red sheer hose covered my legs. Held up by red garters like pegs. It was a monstrous sight. If you'd been there that night. Like the person who saw. Writing poems in the raw. His name I will not disclose. But I visited him on tippy toes. He wore Tag body spray, I could tell. Writing poetry as funny as............ Well...I guess I'd better end here. Or I might get beat in the rear.

Thanks for the comments on my Haiku about the seven-layer-cake. My mother was known for her baking and people paid her money to bake cakes. I can just see you in that red dress and stilettos don't know if you would be standing on them though. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara

In response to your saying that your wife too has been in a soap opera with you for 30 years, like me with my Joe. REad what I put below here. And then tell me, can you measure up to that? hahaha

(what I told Carrie) my hubbie's been stabbed, had a bobcat roll over him, gun held at him, almost cut off his finger framing, got in bad fights with others obnoxious as he, arrested one man naked in a shower in his "bounty hunter" days, lost at least 50,000 in his self employed years, fell 2 stories on his back, recently got his knee rammed by guys in a car fleeing a robbery he tried to stop, has asthma, depression, etc. on and on! Is it any wonder he is on meds? or that I wrote that poem?haha
