Tap my teeth

Tap my teeth

A Story by Jon Roggie

One thing I have learned.
  Play with your characters.

Stories tend to change.

You can have fun.

They like making me do this.

First time for the young one.

Turn my back.
   Might as well turn this into a show.
Brush my hair,
 slowly changing to blonde from black.

I prefer old, gray, and grumpy.

Tap a tooth,
 and slowly bring it to a point.

Makes an odd grin.

Pass my hand across my face,
  and they have evened out.

Phoenix eyes are a nice touch.

Grin while the wings spread.

Shall I tell a story?

I like the idea of Phoenix eyes. It has a certain mystical ring to it. Acceptance is sometimes a curse and a blessing at the same time.

I might stumble across an image. I like it when it adds to a story.
As far as acceptance,.. read more
yes, lets do! When my sister was pregnant with her first child, she was absolutely miserable with morning sickness, she was huge and would always wear her house robe because it was the most comfortable thing she could wear at the time, and she would pull her short hair up into a ponytail that looked just like a samurai warrior's, and she would awaken her husband in the morning by knocking on his forehead like someone would a door when not really expecting anyone to answer but with an urgency of delivery. Your title brought this to mind, what parenthood does to a marriage is sometimes frightening :D
