hi!
ring the doorbell
and face the music
step into my home
and follow the chime
read the signs on the white door
before you staccato through
stay bewildered
smile
yes, you could walk around if you must
no nyet na non
i wont appear if you call out my name
so you may attempt several new ones
and i'll purr if i like any, i promise
feel at home
you can take a drink from my purple water bottle
or open the shelf adjoining the cupboard for the cookie jar
p.s. there are chocolates in-hiding all over the room. find them.
let your gaze wander off in any direction
if you dare to change my playlist
i wont come out and meet you
there, i know youre nice
can you hear my breathing?
oh! thats a miss!
im obviously not under the wooden table!
no,duh!
surely not atop it either!
did you check the verandah?
happy rummaging
done?
youre quick!
at-choooo
what dyu think of all my crayon drawings?
and that terracota vase i made at school?
lets play mikado
oops
you need to find me first!
bad luck, i wouldnt hide under the bed
keep trying
SHEESH!
i never thought youd find out!!
or
i was hoping youll take longer
tch tch
but how did you know
id be here?
i was cleaning up my book shelf this morning
and the books
the began to talk to me
and little did i know
that they'd call me over for breakfast!
so i walked in
and they made me stay
and i read and i read
till i slipped into a dream
and when i awoke
i realised i'd turned into a book
a beautiful, blue-covered paper book
that hasnt been read before...!
and i wanted to tell you about this magical story
i wanted you to find me on your own
i love you
because you can read me like a book
"we've got so much time to kill
like pigeons on my window-sill
we're hanging out...
we're made out of blood and rust
looking for someone to trust
without a doubt...
but right now
everything you want is wrong and
right now
all your dreams are waking up and
right now
i wish i could follow you
to the doors
of freedom
where no one cares..."
