how many times
has this scene been re-enacted
rain pattering on the roof
him -snoring softly to the rhythm
her- churning thoughts around
planning scheming who knows?
she used to sleep so well
now she is getting less and less
relationships are complex matters
especially with warlocks
they cast spells
take up residence in your head
pop out from behind your cushions
spy on your toes steal your nail polish
empty your holy water bottles
the problem is you cannot get enough of them
she feels like a whale
beached on the sand stuck fast in
her unhappiness
no escape for her
she listens to the hard rain
pelting the sea gulls
ha.
ReplyDeletei promise i will never steal nail polish.
smiles.
yes relationships can be complex, and i think it more than warlocks
who have that kind of sway
A lot of people say that about nail polish:)
ReplyDeleteSo now I know what happenend to that holy water bottle. Smiles. Yes, for sure, relationships are complex.
ReplyDeletei knew there was a reason that I didn't trust cushions!
ReplyDeleteIs there such a thing as an anti-cushion? Just curious.
Indeed! So clever, fantastical, definitely more magic, less monster : D

ReplyDeleteVery clever! A lot of fun as it is so realistic at first. Thanks. K. (http://manicddaily.wordpress.com)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure if I was that woman, which, judging from my legs, I'm not, I would have had more than enough of the warlocks.
ReplyDeletevery very true!
ReplyDeleteI can see you are a 'Mad Men' fan! We are flawed in some way, accept it.
ReplyDeleteSo true and such a charming way of expressing!
ReplyDeletePerhaps the tide will wash her back out into fresh waters...
ReplyDeleteShe will need a sturdy little battler with strong legs to roll her into the surf:)
DeleteLOL!
DeleteThere's one sure way of defeating a warlock.
ReplyDeleteLOL..I know...... I have to wear a large crucifix and scapula medals,make a wreath of garlic, rose thorns and parsley (continental of course )for my hair, douse myself in holy water and persuade a fervent duck friend to offer up intercession prayers for me.
DeleteGood to see you Doddles ...Glad to know I have not been dropped from a great height again:)
Been on a week's holiday - on my own.
ReplyDeleteI have this love of visiting early Christian sites up and down the UK. Mrs Doddles does not share this passion of mine. This year I stayed at Mersea Island in Essex and visited some of the old Anglo-Saxon sites and churches. Goggle 'St Peter's on the Wall' in Bradwell. An early Cathedral (7th century). Wonderful, wonderful place.
I have made put in place the necessary arrangements to rid you of the warlock. He will bother you no more.
LOL..I thought you were away...So pleased you had a lovely week offX
