What If the Scissors Got Angry
I start out by looking around the room
And thinking what if the clock ran down the stairs
Jumped out the window and landed on the calendar?
What if the scissors got angry with the crayons?
Would there be a massacre?
Would my muse name it?
My muse wakes up upon hearing her name.
She is persnickety and wants to change most of my words.
Adding way too may clever, fun, exciting, silly, wonderful delicious adjectives.
She has two assistants now - Pixie and Drixie,
And they jump in the fray…..
Pixie starts flipping the calendar pages and Drixie takes a hammer to the clock.
Trixie’s bad mood makes us all laugh.
She thinks she is head muse, but I have the weird idea that it is me.
