Object: Electric Plug

Like a jolt of electricity
He felt the news surge through his brain, invading every corner of his thoughts
His shoulders tightened, his fists clenched: he was a firecracker, ready to explode

Object:Sponge

Sponge..Sponge...you are a jalepeno pepper.
Blue and soft on one side and rough on the other, like grains of sea salt.
So unhappy, so neglected so un-opened, so the teacher said.
Sponge..Sponge...you are a jalapeno pepper.

Never gets loud
unless it shows its fury
And it turns the cloud blury
then gone like the wind
or thrown in the trash

So still so hard just sitting in the dark.
So smooth so lonely laying on the ground.
So cold to the touch that it freezes your hand.

The Lock

A lock it sits there, heavy and gold,
Its not very big and not very bold,
its not as big as a boulder,
but it acts like a soilder,
sharp as a bee,
with just a key,
will help keep your stuff snug,
just like a bug!

poem-i love it

i love my pretty sponge
with its face withered face
and its sploshing sound
and used to being a disgrace
like a sunsplashed dog
laying down on his favorite place
being lazy and tired
my sponges' beautiful face

I heard a crash from

The hall.
There,
I saw my cat
chewing on a
toy.
It was a mouse toy.
He looked up at me,
And I thought I saw
A tear,
At the corner of his eye.
I took the mouse from
The cat and put it on a
Shelf.
Then I gave the cat an
Old sock to play with
And everything was
Better...
Until the cat learned to
Jump.

and when it locks it goes click.
