creative writing exercises for school

these assignments were do some time ago, but i didn't get a chance to turn them in -- grrrr.


seperation

your absence has gone through me
like soda through a carpet
the fizz in gone, the stain remains

doesn't he realize
doesn't he realize
that i am not
like the friendly yellow Lab
in his training class
click, treat, click, treat
sit, stay. heal.

you fit into me
like a nail into a wall
a fingernail, an artery wall

you fit into me
like a disc into a DVD player
it's Gigli

nose has been broken
blood pools in big red circles
but i won the fight

el wray
i am the too-heavy slipper
the accidental vacuum
the smell of something rotten in denmark
a too-short escort
i've swallowed your pride for you
i am the fuzzy nipple
the scattered toupee
the taste of makeup and kibble
a lip too big
i've lost my way and found home

easter (according to scraps of paper on my desk)
we need some help here
in god we trust
i agree to pay the above total
redemption
join us march 8th, 2008 for the bunny hop
