The Mule! Poem by Poetheart Morgan
The Mule!
- Good Afternoon!
- Good Afternoon!
- your name please
- Ah! ! ! Why do you want my name?
- is the protocol (i saw smiles)
- But.....
- name please
- ok, my name is M M, now please could i pass my purchase, i`m in a rush, parked my car in a wrong place and has a guard watching me! ! !
- Oh really.... is he watching you or your car
- Ah i don't understand your question. My car of course
- yes, i know..... your car.....
- listen to me lady, what is the problem..... (i have a short fuse)
- oh nothing, nothing wrong
- Hum, of course has no problem i am here just for pay such things and go away. If you allow me of course......
In that moment, i started to pay attention to that figure in front of me.
She make a strange gesture with her mouth. Up and down, from right to left, like a ruminant. And I thought: yes, really i have a mule right here in front of me. Trying to finish my day.
That movement starts to irritate me, . Very long and rhythmic. Insinuating that she rules my time. And i was in a rush.
I had come from the acupuncture and i will need go to bank.
My god almost 4 pm! ! ! !
The mule looked at me and felt my despair. I dont know but that gives to her such pleasure, , , , , ,
My irritation increasing..... and for each item that passed by her a mocking gaze....
Oh i will kill her!
- ok, cash or credit card
- oh finally! Credit card.....
- ah! we have a problem here!
- what! ! ! ! !
- if you want the discount you have to subscribe.....
- no, no, no, , , , i don't want nothing, just go away. And i hope never go back here again!
- ok, say the calm ruminant..... (i swear, this time she laughed...) But ruminants don't laugh...
I took my things quickly and ran to the car. Thinking in how to exterminates mules in a quick way......
- Hey, Miss, hey!
Oh my God its the guard! ! ! !
- yes i said, with landscape face (my face of... Oh please let me go..)
- I know, sorry, i parked in a wrong place, sorry, i am going away.....
- Are you ok Miss? ? ? ?
- yes, of course just in hurry....
- yes must be.....
At that moment, a moment of lucidity.... i suspected of myself....
a cold sweat trickled down my face.....
i passed my hands on my head and....
i had 5 needles stuck that I forgot to take off.....
OH My!
And the worst is...
the Mule was right.....
P.M. i didn't roar with laughter as robert green did, BUT two or three parts of this poem caused my funny bone to tickle a bit. and in this case i mean my sense of humor (though that isn't the real way to use funny bone, i liked the sound of funny bone. don't you?) yes, i almost laughed. i certainly smiled! when i reached the ending i had to look back at the poem and think what was the mule right about? . oh yeah, the is he watching you or your car comment by the Mule (i didn't even miss the? , which wasn't there, my first time reading that part.) OH, i just notice something my friend. i THINK you meant to write my car where you wrote ME in the following section. and if that is the case, i also suggest changing it a bit more (see below) : parked my car in a wrong place and has a guard watching ME! ! ! - Oh really.... is he watching you or your car - Ah i don't understand your question. My car of course [my other suggestion: instead of is he watching you or your car, what do you think of using is he watching your car or YOU? ? ] i loved this poem and have added it to MyPoemList. it is a fine example of misunderstanding, forgetfulness, and suspicion which could have ended in a very unfortunate confrontation. it was good that the shopper has a good mood (though you wrote that you have a short fuse) . (isn't that what you say about yourself p.m.? that you have a good mood.) i especially enjoyed the parts in parentheses....funny and enlightening.....and the following: She make a strange gesture with her mouth. Up and down, from right to left, like a ruminant. And I thought: yes, really i have a mule right here in front of me. Trying to finish my day. But ruminants don't laugh... I took my things quickly and ran to the car. Thinking in how to exterminates mules in a quick way...... thanks for sharing. i may have found my match in the humor arena on poemhunter. could it be that you surpass me? nah! :) bri
