A CONVERSATION WITH MY CREATIVE MIND...by b. Malin
HELP, I'M BLANK!
Introduction: This conversation took place today between ME and "My Creative Mind". Read it, and then you be the Judge.
Hey "Creative Mind" where are you?
(Answer) I'm here, what's the problem?
I'm not sure, NOTHING is dancing around in my head, no words to be said...I'm so Blank!
(Answer) "No words to be said, nothing dancing in your head"...Don't go getting Mello-Dramantic on me. Mmm, do you remember Ms. Smith, your first grade teacher who used to say, "Put your THINKING CAPS on Class"
Was I ever that little and innocent? Maybe this Heat Wave we're having has gotten to my "Thinking Cap"...and I couldn't sleep at all last night. I think I finally fell asleep at 5 a.m., and my Sister called and woke me at l0 a.m. Our relationship is still mending from our fight and angry words from when I got sick so many weeks ago.
(Answer) Oh yeah, I remember THAT FIASCO! Well, thank goodness that's over with. So let's not waste anymore time on it. Let me think, what can you write about...
Well that's what I'm hoping you can tell me. You Always come up with such Good Ideas...
(Answer) BULL! I'm not doing all the WORK and YOU take all the CREDIT MISSY.
What's that suppose to mean?
(Answer) It should be signed, and her "Creative Mind"...Not just b. Malin. I'm the CREATIVE ONE NOT YOU!
Oh let's not start that argument again...PLEASE, just help me.
(Answer) Ok, Ok. How about a Poem?
Sounds Good.
(Answer) Title, "THE LIFE OF A KLEENEX"
I hate being a Kleenex...Being Sneezed into, Achoo, Achoo.
Not the life I envisioned when my Tree was chopped down...
And I was shipped out of town, and put in a Kleenex Box.
Maybe I'm used once, or twice before I'm put down,
Or thrown away, discarded, gone.
But if by Chance, I'm RECYCLED...I want to come back,
As part of a Newspaper, and that would be that!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND (Pardon the Pun) I scream at my "Creative Mind". I'm NOT signing my name to that ridiculous Poem!
(Answer) Fine, then I'll sign mine! It will read, "THE LIFE OF A KLEENEX" By The Creative Mind.
