Dinner Menu
Frenzied
Hormone driven
Clicking
The grooves
Worn deep
Both side to side
And up and down
In the ball
Where evidence
That left no doubt
About the horrifying things
That had transpired
The raw emotional force
That had been transmitted
Through that poor
Mistreated computer mouse
The picture’s clear
No forensics needed
Obsession etched deep
Into the creases
On her troubled brow
Neurosis dripping
From ragged hair
She raced through
The blog trail
Chasing comments:
What had he said
About her?
About us?
What was he saying
To this one
And that one
And especially
That other one
With the jaunty chest
And had they replied?
Emotional tension
Grew to breaking
Like a high wire transformer
Struck by lightning
Jealousy and anger overwhelmed
Her tender nervous circuits
She raged like a
Tormented beast
Screamed lungfulls
Of pure hate
When suddenly…
Ring… ring… ring…
“Hello”
“Hey you, I missed you today
How’s everything going”
“Ok I guess”
As suddenly as it came
It dissipated
A cloud of nothingness
Replaced by little words
Of love and affection
All that remained
Was the abuse inflicted on
An innocent mouse
“Do you want anything special
For dinner tonight, dear?”

OMG.. You should probably titles this post “jadey’s replies, none stop” *wink wink* I will never write you off as a lost cause… But I can give you the short version of what women are all about… confusing, moody, sexy, mysterious *wink wink* … Do you by chance have any messengers that you use?
this is fun and powerful- sometimes writing these things take no effort, and we forget the echoes misplaced words can cause.
That poor mouse!! This was fun, Andreas. I like the way it read. I read it out loud the second time and it just sounded great. I like a little fun in poetry sometimes. Thank you for sharing another job well done.
OH my…poor poor mouse…unfortunately…there lies so much reality in your wonderfully well written and voiced story here my dear Andreas. But I swear I heard the poor little thing squeak its final squeak…as the wheel simply sunk into the center and twitched no more!
Great read my friend. I love your muse.
warmest thoughts,

(after reading the explanation ABOVE the post…geesh … she plays….)
Andreas Dammit!!! But…but…you promised you wouldnt tell! You SWORE!!! on the chickens heart…you swore you wouldn’t tell everyone I killed “Roller” (fictional name for a fictional mouse). And anyway…he isn’t dead yet…he is currently in http://WWW.ABUSEDMOUSE.ICU (oh my god…it made a a link…heheh) The doctor says he may yet live…but the wheel had to be removed. Sigh…such guilt I have such guilt….AND ….YOU…..TOLD !!!!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

listen, mister, it’s not a mental affliction. it’s witchery. muahahahahahahahaha!
you’ll never be able to help me. the madness is just too deeply imbedded in this brain of mine : D
and next time i see you, we’re both going to make you sit in a car with us as we sing ‘warrior’ at the top of our lungs! witchery i tell you!
Dear friend,
I am not at all upset by your post, well not upset with you, I should say. I certainly don’t want to be the cause of any trouble amoung someone’s relationship. I certainly can understand you wanting to take the proper precautions to avoid ruining a good thing, especially on the account of a complete stranger. I do think it’s sad that any relationship has that much doubt surrounding it. However, as I said before I’ve been there, done that, got the mugshot. The truth is you could have avoided my question altogether, leaving it worse then it was. So I respect your decison, and more importantly your honest answer. I just don’t want people to get the wrong idea of my intentions, and believe me when I say, you’re not the first person to tell me this. Which is what sparked my post in the first place. Kinda the straw that broke the camels back I guess you could say. I honestly didn’t know so many people see things in such a different light. But I respect other people’s relationships, and I wanted anyone reading my posts to know, if I were to ask them the same question, that I seriously don’t have ulterior motives. I was simply looking to chat. The reason I asked you for yours, is to avoid the constant back and fourth posts we were doing that day. I felt bad leaving so many for you in a matter of 20 min lol.. that’s all… But again, I’m sorry if you took my post wrong. I will hopefully be leaving town tomorrow, for how long, I don’t know.. but when I return I do hope you’ll still allow me to visit your site.
Sending huggles,
jadey lynn
