Little mouse

Hello,

My name is little mouse. I like to paint fairies and dance with the fireflies, my teddy bear and I often invite everyone for tea and play-dough cookies. Today I was in the garden looking for my friends and instead I found a key all covered in weeds. I had to polish it, I used the hem of my sunflower dress and it began to shine. All of a sudden a curious little man in a red hat appeared, his name was Mr Fox. He beckoned with an impish hand.  My teddy was scared but I took it …….

DEAR ROSIE

Ma goofy Rosie. Wanna see you smilin’ again. All I wanted was dat ear worm ta tunnel into someone elses ’ed for a bit, an’ no one else hears ’em voices or see’s ‘em faces.

I thought you understood like. What da fuck Rosie! I thought we were special like. Different from da other crew. Forever youse said. Why’d ya lie to me like that?

It’s your b-day soon,  I even got ya a dress like. Red ya fav colour. You’d look savage in it too, catchin’ those bloke’s eyes, while ya dancin’. You’se always was a sexy gal, an’ ya knew it. Got ya some new dance lessons too. Am tryin’ too hard to make ya ‘appy wiv us, then ya went an’ ruined it, init.

Katie keeps on ringin’ da house phone, an’ I dunno what for.

I made ya breakfast, an’ ya went an’ let it go cold. Pancakes an’ syrup. Ya fav.

Katie’s a whore, so’s you’d both get along fine. She won’t leave me alone. She thinks I need regular therapy. Pussy’s do therapy. Can ya imagine! I told her to try someone wiv loads of dollars, instead of me, an’ I chucked ha’ pills down the loo.

Rosie, it just ain’t the same wiv ya not around. It ain’t, an’ I keep hearin’ ‘em in ma head. They all fuckin’ lovin’ it, an’ da’re laugin’ at me too, they wants me ta do it, again.

I shud’av told ya dat things ‘ave been bad. Jack fired me today, an’ he did it off a bleedin’ text. Said it was ‘cos I was always late, an’ ‘cos he thinks I’m a bit wierd.

So I went an’ got a piece from Charlie today, ‘cos I was mad init. It ain’t no AK 47, but I wanted to teach ya all a lesson.

Control. Control, an’ stop listenin’ to those dirty airwaves. Switch off, ‘cos she understands me, she’s da only one that did. Watchya mean? She’s dead? She ain’t dead.

Shit.

Rosie.

Why’d ya ‘ave to fuck around so much? Did ya use rubbers wiv ‘em or ’av I got ta get checked for SDI’s too?

No one told me ’bout the cleanin’ or it gettin’ messy. Fuckin’ blood gets everywhere like. A bit like you, fuckin’ everythin’, everyone, an’ everywhere.

Ya ma, came round this afternoon, bangin’ on the door like, but I wud’nt let her in. Ya mutha thinks ya gone ta Spain for a bit, ‘cos dats wat I told her thru da letterbox then I told the whore to go fuck ha’ self. She didn’t seem too ‘appy. What’s ya ma like as a lay?

I wanna use this gun ta blow ma freekin’ brains out, ‘cos it’s quiet wiv out ya init. You’d like that, ‘cos we’d be togetha, an’ maybe you’d stop all dat screamin an’ pleadin’. ‘Cos dat’s all I see an’ hear… Now.

All dat fire in ya eyes is gone, an’ I dunno what ta tell ya mutha, ‘cos Spain won’t fly for long. D’ya think she’d understand, if I told her that ya a whore who likes ta fuck? Wish I cud get my dick up ya arse, but I ain’t sick like.

I’ve been scrubbin’ ya brains off da walls,  all fuckin’ afternoon. I know how’se you like a clean house. My ’ed hurts real bad, an’ I need ta lie down.

Rosie,  I liked da rush, I wanna do it again, an’ I wanna fuck too! I’ve been eyein’ up this bird, an’ I think she lives across aw’ street. I wanna see ha’ scream like ya, an’ I wanna feel her blood. Ya know Rosie, I luv ya, an’ now youse can’t fuck other blokes no more.

Shit….

….

….. Where da I put ya body, so’s ya don’t stink up da house?

Human nature

8 Dec

This weeks drabble is called Human nature, a drabble is a piece of fiction that is 100 words. Enjoy Regypsy X

Human nature

Can’t help myself, and don’t mind if I do, say the Lord of the flies and they stand behind him, he looked and they looked and then discussed while pecking at the order, the Watafak tribe bemused and muted in techni-colour. Peer your nose down at what, exactly……  Burst of Innocence hiccups holding on to play with a red balloon and the others wish to  float in a wind. Boxes and labels, fine lines, so I turn my key standing at the crossroads of extremes, I’d say sorry but this one is always free, take a left at the lights.

Nothing

22 Dec

A drabble is a piece of fiction that is 100 words, this one is called Nothing.

Enjoy

Regypsy X

Nothing

Awkward dreams wake up one day and again he stumbles out of bed, the alarm buzzes out more sleep while he meditates in the shower. Nothing day to day, nothing in every way, life, work, and the mundane all mingle together with his thoughts and he moves onto his teeth, all the while an emptiness strains around him. He surrounds himself with white noise to drown out the ground hogged silence all used to help hide himself behind hopes that lurk in shadows. Life is blind and must concede to journeys, his quest longs for a little thing called love.

Heaven

4 Feb

Heard this today and it prompted my Drabble.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQZ0AQHYgYI

Music is a great muse. This drabble is called Heaven. A drabble is a piece of fiction that is one hundred words.

Enjoy ReGypsy XX

Heaven

So far from Heaven and we all taste the joys of pain, feel those gates entice and close, oh but to see a glimpse, and yet you my heart has but disappeared along with the soul, life verses a life, and we dance through a shallow grin as beacons and doors entice closing in on us. To want and desire and to realise that love is all a bunch of practicalities, what are you willingly to sacrifice today? So I bury my daughter and I mourn and bid adieu as people while today dawns across her grave, behind me.

Her name was June

15 Feb

I’ve had a bizarre rollercoaster ride of 8 months. I have had some amazing highs along with trips to the darkest of holes, these places I’ve visited were physical and emotional, the people I met have astounded me with revelations of the good, the downright evil and the just plain human, the country I am currently in has been both a slap in the face with a few great surprises and to say adjustments had to be made is an understatement. Life is full of contradictions, a bit like me. To truly feel cut off from the world and its inhabitants was a conscious decision, and yes I am still way too connected. I will aim to release something small ….*wink* not telling ya when ……But tonight involves a look behind me and I guess I’m just in the mood for writing, in the mood for righting some wrongs all out…

A Drabble is a piece of fiction that is 100 words. This one is more like a stream that burst into a gushing river of consciousness. This is dedicated to a truly great person, someone that deserves more than an apology, that I wish happiness to and met this time last year and the name was……….

Her name was June

Misunderstood and doubt stood hand in hand with keynotes from the past, they can’t be trusted, if they can’t be trusted this one can’t be either. Mistake stepped forward and said I will go under the guise of sacrifice and fate will step in. To break an illusion takes an effort of insanity, to be willing to seek sabotage and strike fear and confusion within this heart deems you not of sound mind, remove all traces and bonds must be shed, escape before self is destroyed, prove this one  is not worthy and so the lamb ran like the Israelites….
