Ice

Based on a... actually, most of my work is based on a true story...

One day

I was reading

And I got thirsty.

So these modern times

I go to the fridge to get water.

I push back the flap-thingy

(If you know what I mean)

Because it is hot.

And ice comes exploding out 

Like a rabid bear is chasing it

Half of it misses my forlorn glass

And tumbles to the floor, 

Shattering into a million pieces.

I look on in awe of the

Horrible quality of our fridge.

And I think: what a slippery slope it is

The line between 

What's meant to last

And what makes money.

I fill up my glass

And halfheartedly clean up the floor

The melting dreams of freedom melting in my palm

Thinking that the idiot ice

Decided to fall to its death 

Than bless me and jump into the glass.

"what a slippery slope it is"
haha. see what i did there? anyone?

just random, i was refilling my water glass when the ice nearly assaulted me, so i decided to write this

[Locke Redwyne (night sy..]

In the first stanza, change So these modern times to In these modern times
Change the last three lines to

Thinking that the idiot ice
Had chosen to fall to its death
Instead of blessing me and jumping into the glass

Otherwise, nice!
