Joking around with my sister today talking about drugstores…I know, crazy right? Thought of this. I probably know most of these scenes by heart. No offense to anyone intended. I miss these ladies😀

Drink

my favorite drink so sublime
I need to have it fresh and sweet
they always surrender, accept defeat
my charms entice my victims well
only afterwards, when it’s too late to tell
their trip of a lifetime is seen
as their blood on my lips causes a sheen

Muddled

Am I dreaming? I hear it constantly. Why doesn’t the phone ring stop? I’ve pressed all the buttons. I have even turned the phone to “off”, but I still hear a ring. I must be dreaming; asleep finally, after so many nights trying. The body can only stay awake so long, right?
I walk into my bedroom, see the bed ahead of me, those soft warm blankets calling me. I crawl in, put the pillow over my head and it has stopped.
Three o’clock in the morning, I hear a ring again. Am I dreaming?

Aha, thinking you might enter without our permission? I think not, my friend. Even though we sit on high, we see, hear, and recognize everything. Now step inside if you choose, but make sure to keep your secret hairy self out of sight. Our policy is all creatures are allowed, but must remain in human form while inside the building.

Ancient harbingers in the night sky

A moon is envious no matter how bright it shines

What Day is it Anyway?
It’s a day to start thinking about going off a cholesterol medicine I started taking. I haven’t been on medications for almost 10 years and starting this one has been a pain in the butt, literally. I can’t sleep, can’t think, I can’t remember things and it feels like my mind’s in a fog. The only thing different I have done during this period of weeks is take this medicine.
So is it worth it? I don’t think so. I haven’t been able to sleep for weeks because I can’t get comfortable enough at night to sleep. My mind is fuzzy trying to remember things, my digestive system is in an uproar of rebellion no matter what I eat and frankly I am tired of it. So what day is it anyway? Am I the only one…again? Have you ever been on this type of med and how did you react? Was it worth it?

Remember those prophetic words
How you wanted only me
And then so inappropriately
Forgot the vows you had taken
Left me all forsaken
Now the time has finally come
Finding you’re the one to succumb
To that pull of love I once craved
While I watch you be enslaved
I revel in your demise
Cause now I’m the one who is wise.
