Playing On A Page With A Pen

A blank page can be intimidating.

You just have to start writing

And see where it leads.

It's kinda like dating.

You get nowhere if you’re too scared

To say hi and just walk on by.

So, I’m gonna let this pen fly

Oops, FYI you forgot to zip it.

Over the page saying anything

How embracing.

That comes to my mind;

And let it flow in a rhyme

Keeping time for the waiter to get here.

I’m ready to order my beer.

I’m so hungry I could eat a ….

Oh wait, maybe I better not say it;

I think that talk should stay under cover.

Hush hush, don’t wanna rush rush

Or you’ll get a stomach ache

From gobbling everything on your plate.

No, we’re not running late

The movie doesn’t start ‘til eight.

Yes, I like the green beans

But could you pass the ketchup please?

The french fries are a little greasy.

Do you like your roast beef?

I see you dip it in Bar-b-q too,

That’s what I like to do.

What kinda music do you listen to?

What are they laughing at over there?

Oh, it's somebody’s birthday,

I can see the cake.

Well, they seem to be having a good time.

Oh yes, so am I just looking in your eyes.

Well, I’m stuffed like a turkey.

Excuse me, I better go pee.

I hope the theater isn’t cold,

Of course that would give us a reason to ….

You know where you’re going, don’t you?

There’s the sign on the right, turn in here.

I’ll grab the popcorn, you get the tickets.

Here, we can sit in the middle.

Do you know the answer to that riddle?

Yay, it's starting! Where’s the setting?

In some foreign country in the woods.

Oh good, it's not based on a true story.

I was hanging off the edge of my seat leaning forward.

I think that character just came from a psych ward!

Well, it definitely wasn’t boring,

Maybe just a little scary.

A little? You were practically in my lap,

Not that I minded that.

I’m just saying,

Now can we get to playing?
