A fly came to my lair today
After a phone call, and I so late to hit the keyboard,
To taunt me.
In my dark, dark basement lair, at the corner countertop
I sat down in front of New Delly
And was buzzed, yes I was buzzed, but not in a way that brings
pleasure
He zoomed in from the left side of my office in the gloom
And zipped his silken-winged gossamer self right past the end of
my nose tip
And made a return to land on the bright screen,
And where his hairy legs blocked out my view, he rubbed his fly hands
In a show of fly glee,
Laughed at me through his fly gums, shaking his black fly body,
Silently.
Okay. Enough plagiarizing by Val Thevictorian. That's what happens when she runs out of original ideas, and can't concentrate because a fly that should be out sitting on poop and crawling on rotting carcasses invades her dark basement lair and makes her overexert herself waving her arms frantically about her head.
I'm pretty sure Hick let him in.
Was it yelling "Help Me!" in a mini Vincent Price voice?
ReplyDeleteNo, shockingly enough. And not even in a Jeff Goldblum voice.
DeleteI hated the Jeff Goldblum version...never remake a classic!
DeleteI agree. Not even True Grit.
DeleteWhat would you do without your loving scapegoat?
ReplyDeleteI would curry my unicorn until his silky coat shone, and then sit under the rainbow, stroking my basket full of kittens. I'm sure that would make for some fascinating stories to share with the blogosphere.
