 Being a Baby

I love this, everyone's eyes are on me, their attention is on me, it’s perfect. I’m being played with and cuddled, I really love the bouncing, that can keep happening. These people keep passing me around though. I’d prefer to stay with mama and dada but these other people are pretty fun.

I’m not quite sure where I am, this place doesn’t look like home. There are so many fun things on the table though; yummy napkins, shiny forks, some cups that I want to grab also. These people are no fun though, they won’t let me touch anything, they keep giving me this plastic bottle that is so boring!

Wait, why is no one looking at me now. This lady just brought things that smell nice, and now no one is looking at me. Oh wait, I’m going back to mama! Ooh she is giving me the yummy smelling things, this is pretty good, thank you mama. No wait, stop, I don’t want to be in this chair, put me back on your lap! Play with me! Pay attention to me!

Oh yay, dada is coming to pick me up. He heard me, he understands. Yay freedom, now maybe I can walk around a little, with dada watching me of course.

Aw that was a short walk, and now back to the table? He better not put me back in that chair. I can’t move in that thing! No one can hold me when I’m in there, it’s terrible! Ok, ok, this other guy, not dada, I think he calls himself grandpa? He can hold me, that’s alright. Wait no, why are my eyes shutting, I don’t want to sleep, I want to stay awa-

4/18/22 The Hypno-Toilet

  The Hypno-Toilet You stare at the toilet water as it spins round and round. All sense of time is gone as you are mesmerized by the swirl. It is not very fast or harsh, just a steady flow of circling water. The soft swishing noises are so calming and all you can do is stand and stare. A loud buzzing noise, tries desperately to alarm you of the damage being caused to the septic tank. Slowly the tank fills up higher and higher with the wasted toilet water. You cannot hear the alarm, you are too entranced by the water in the bowl.  As the water level rises in the underground tank, the alarm continues to blare. The little pump works as hard as it can, but without your help, it is helpless. The thought of leaving the bathroom hasn’t even crossed your mind. All that flows through your brain is the soft swirling water.  The toilet water consumes your thoughts, nothing else matters to you anymore, only the water. You aren’t even sure why it is happening, the swirling water is nice yes

12/25/22 Paper Floor

  Paper Floor Boxes, bags, and wrapping paper were scattered across the floor. It was hard to step on just the carpet without getting some form of paper on your foot. It seemed like the floor was completely covered and the mess would be impossible to clean.  The next day the mess stayed, no one cleaning it up. The day after that and the day after that, nothing was done about it. The carpet was no more, it was just trampled wrapping paper and squished bags. Years passed, they forgot what the carpet even looked like in the living room. They had grown so accustomed to the paper, it just felt right now. They didn’t miss the carpet and didn’t mind the mess, and so the wrapping paper stayed, on the floor, forever. The End 12/25/22

9/22/22 We the Dreamers

  We the Dreamers We the dreamers, we the inventors, we the artists, we who wish for something more than what we already have, we create. Sometimes our creations are logical and possible. But other times we delve into the impossible, the dreams we wish would come true.  Anything can come from nothing if you dream hard enough. Everything already came from nothing, first there was nothing, and then there was everything. We continue on to make everything, even things that don’t exist.  The physical creations and the theoretical dreams alike, leave us striving for greatness. It makes us want to be better than we are, more than we can be, even if it is just a dream. Our brains are powerful, wonderful, amazing devices that let us learn and explore and create. To create, be original, discover or come up with something new, that is what we do. We the dreamers make the world a more interesting place. The End 9/22/22
