I was wet

But now I’m dry.

I sure could go

For some Apple Pie!

Or chocolate.

Or perhaps coffee?

Cuddles are fine.

Maybe a hug.

But more than that?

No. No squishing!

I don’t need to visit a doctor today

Thank you very much!

Picture of a child

in a chef’s uniform.

National flags on the lapels.

Holding wooden spoons in each hand.

Over a wok

with flames in it.

Seriously?

Flames?

Doesn’t that strike you as dangerous?

I honestly think people need to rethink what they want to advertise

before putting it out into public.

Assessing the threat.

Better be tough.

Don’t want to have an accident.

After all things break.

Even rocks get worn down.

Are you a rock?

Didn’t think so.

I was pretty sure that was it.

Or was it this one here?

Oh right, I changed it.

What did I change it to?

Maybe this time I should record

the new password somewhere?

I just hope I don’t lose this one too!

Stumble and jive.

Move like a gale.

Find a wary drive.

Be the first you can be.

No one else will believe you.

So behave like yourself.

Things to do.

Illnesses to heal.

People to complain about.

Appointments to keep.

Friends to visit.

Children to look after.

Days blur

And lose meaning.

What does it really mean

When you are not able to understand yourself?

Fly back to young

Because old has become taboo.

Awful things happen

When your eyes are closed.

People get hurt

Mishaps happen.

Upon waking

Fear courses through you.

Did you actually hear that thump

Or was it just your brain playing tricks on you?

Only one way to find out

As you stumble out of bed

And run down the stairs

To make sure everyone is okay.

Please.

I would like some time to myself.

I do not need you looking over my shoulder.

Watching me.

It is very annoying.

So please.

Go away.
