Run, Rat, Run (Second Version)

Run, rat, run! Run as fast as you can. You must run to earn your bread! If you stop running, You will earn nothing And you won’t be able to get fed. Run, rat, run! Run early in the morning Or run late into the night. Either wake up before Mr. Sun Or wake up with the Man in the Moon For you cannot afford respite. Run, rat, run! You’re the best runner we have! The most successful racer by far! Keep running at this pace And you just might win the race! Thank you for giving us all that you are. Run, rat, run! What’s this? You want extra crumbs? Proposturous! Utterly ridiculous! You’re not even that speedy And you’re already being greedy. You cannot possibly be serious. Run, rat, run! Don’t slow down now Though you puff and you pant for air. If you keep running You will stop foolishly thinking That this life isn’t right or fair. Run rat run! Don’t stop now! You must run all day, all night long! If you really hope to thrive And you really want to survive  You must continue to run strong!...

Micro Story: Stranded


“This is all your fault!” Daisy fumed.

“My fault? You’re the one who wanted to come up here so badly,” Jack said.
“But you’re the one who lied about knowing how to fly a plane!”
“I do know how to fly a plane; I just wasn’t quite sure how to land.”
“And now the plane is totaled and we’re stuck up here on this floating island for who knows how long!”
Jack walked near the edge of the island and looked down at the other floating chunk of land that had their house on it.
“Dad will notice we’re gone soon, then he’ll get his other plane and find us.”
Daisy sighed. “And then he’ll kill us. Thanks, that makes me feel a lot better.”
