Daring Move for Me

I was having my semi-annual school crap clean up when I found some work I had done for my creative writing class. I decided to daringly put one of my poems on here. This one was, not to toot my own horn, a hit with my peers.

"Burning Diabetics are not Delicious"

In a hip Vietnamese cafe
There's a classy ad for creme brulee,
"Fire + Sugar= Tasty"
Still it doesn't make sense logically.

One of my friends used reason
To come to the conclusion
"Tasty - Sugar = Fire"

We rushed home to do experiments
Stuffing the smart one with sugar-free treats
Although it was not what she wanted.
Then in the kitchen, her body erupted.

We poured sugar on the flames
Snacked on her delicious limbs
Because "Fire + Sugar = Tasty"

Time for a Car Wash?...Update

Yesterday I took the time to finally wash my car. It was beautiful. I even cleaned the mats, steering wheel, mirrors, and inside of the windows! If it hadn't been so late in the evening, a wax would have happened too. I was feeling PUH-RETTY good!
Flash forward...today...approximately 7:00 pm
It rained. A dirty, filthy, horrible rain. My car is nasty now.
My conclusion: Fear is good. Fear warns us. Fear keeps us in line. Even if it doesn't do much to get our cars clean.
