THE TEA PARTY


THE TEA PARTY
Join my tea party.
Don’t be afraid to drink the tea.
It isn’t poisoned.
I promise!
What?
You don’t trust the Cheshire Cat.
I wouldn’t either.
Meow!

READ ME A TALE




Read me a tale, grandfather,
of battles and dead bodies.
Turn the pages, grandfather,
of the book of horrors.
Tell me more stories, grandfather,
of evil armies and sadness.
I will close my eyes, grandfather,
and wish the darkness away.

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM



Dream a little dream for me.
Soar to the clouds and
Join your colorful friends.
Spread a little fairy dust.
Follow your dreams
To far away lands.
Dream a little dream for me.

TRAPPED IN WONDERLAND



Too many people on the streets.
Cars honking their horns.
People shoving each other.
When did life become so hectic?
Why is everyone in a hurry?
Where are they all going?
They become a blur to me.
One shoving mass of humanity.
Hurrying to their end.
No individuality.
No caring.
No manners.
Only a need
to get somewhere fast.
Trapped in their
Alice of Wonderland—
in a hurry to go nowhere.

RAPUNZEL! RAPUNZEL!



Rapunzel! Rapunzel!
Let down your gorgeous hair.
I want to climb up your blonde strands.
Come to me my darling.
I will be yours.
And you will be mine.
Forever we will walk
hand in hand.
Never to be alone again.
Come closer.
I cannot see you.
Wait!
That’s not Rapunzel!
The face is old and wrinkled.
The hair is long and scraggly.
What happened to my sweet love?
Have I waited too long?

THE DEAD GAME -- DAY 161






Was there going to be a happy ending for Todd and Linda? 

Chapter 29
“This has been just a sick game for Wolf; he used us like pawns on a chess board,” Linda said as she paced back and forth in front of the alligator tank. She couldn’t believe that this was actually happening to them. They had all settled in Oasis to find peace and freedom, but instead they’d found a madman and a coven of vampires. She didn’t even know if vampires traveled in covens, or if that was just witches.
      She also couldn’t understand how she’d fallen for someone with so many dark secrets. These weren’t your everyday secrets—like cheating on a test or on a spouse; this was a different breed of secret altogether that included vampires and flying bats.
    
     Todd watched as fear and loathing crossed over Linda’s pretty face. Was it loathing for him, or for the evil vampires? He’d planned on gaining her trust before revealing to her his sordid past. Instead, she’d found out in the worst possible way: when her life was being threatened by vampires. She would never want to be with him now—now that she knew he was a human vampire. She didn’t trust his powers—she’d even suspected him of hypnotizing Louise.
     He turned to walk out of the house.

FAIRYTALE OR HORROR STORY?

Is this a fairytale or a horror story?
Is the princess entering the grounds
of her dream mansion or a house of horrors?
Will her wand protect her?
If it was up to me, she will be entering
the house from her deepest, darkest fears.
Her wand will be whisked away from her hand.
The gates behind her lock shut.
She begins to realize that she
just made a big mistake.
Too bad, she has more mistakes to make
as she continues to walk toward the house.
What happens next?
I will leave it to your imagination.
