Potter's field, poor souls, aghast!
My uncle, my aunt, a cousin too.
Black rat...Black Death--
Wanton malady!
But what is the greater sin
To abide this slow decay
or to pay homage to family ties?
"A stitch in time..." they say
and though I am no seamstress,
expedience demands
a quick resolve.
And so I, resurrectionist,
Portray Michelangelo,
Cabman Gray...Dr. Knox...
Then sequestered in my 'sewing' room,
my zigzags become the 'ties that bind'...
Uncle's head to aunties' torso--
Just making lemons into lemonade.

I really, really, really like your style of writing - heaps and heaps and heaps!
-
This is one of your favorites? LOL This one has to stay!
Very clever AND funny. Did I say funny? Funny. There, I said it. Well, I really didn't say it, I typed it which I guess is like saying it except you would hear your voice in your head when you read it instead of my voice saying it unless of course you read things outloud which would be very weird by the way but then it would be your voice and you would think my voice sounds just like your voice which it really doesn't. Just pretend I said it and didn't type it.
That will be $9.99 plus tax, Killah.

I skipped to the end after I read the line, Very clever AND funny."
10 bucks? Wow, your comments are a killah!

Hurry up with the ten bucks! I have the chinese food delivery guy waiting at my front door waiting to be paid.
Want some Killah?

Can I have the fortune cookies? I need some good luck!

Alan Rickman ate all the fortune cookes. Sorry. I have a pack of peanut butter crackers on the bottom of my purse if you want them?

I hate Alan Rickman. I hate any actor who steals my food! I can stand a singer, but an actor? That just burns me!
-
-
What was that? You say something? I wasn't paying attention. Alan was reading me your I mean my fortunes.

You can have your fortune cookie stealing Alan Rickman. I have James Earl Jones reading to me. I just wish he'd stop saying, "This is CNN" after each sentence!

You better stay away from my Alan Rickman. I always call him by his first and last name. He likes when I do that.
Why would you pick James Earl Jones to read to you? You're weird.
-
-
Why is that weird? He's got a great voice. I read real literature so I need a real speaker. Your Rickie is fine for your bubbly girlie trash novels.
