I know that you love the brethren, and the sistren. I know that you love even the little children, and that ocassionally you take out the trash, and that your exploits in the studio are unmatched, indeed, you are the master of the recording studio.
Still, I have these things against you.
When you arise in the morning and you squeak the dresser drawers loudly and close the bathroom door so it makes a noise, I hold this against you. Indeed, although my anger is only for a moment and I might go back to sleep, except your other offenses.
For INDEED, you did turn on the overhead light and not one of the three small lamps. Not just in the room in which I sleep, but also in the living room where the oldest child lays on the couch until someone gives him permission to arise. And you did give him permission to arise, and my anger burns against you.
And though your trespasses weighed heavily against you, you did heed the decoy cries of the toddler and bid me come. And by hearing the fake cries of the toddler, you did allow him to awaken completely. My fury parallels the fire of the sun.
Now, my wrath burns and will not be held back, unless you turn from your ways and bring to me chocolate, refined by Snickers.

oooo. Yikes. Overhead light, squeaky drawers AND allowed the child to awaken?
ReplyDeleteThat deserves a lot more than chocolate. That deserves a day out for mom.
Actually, your Revelation parody isn't entirely accurate. Usually when His countenance is like the Sun it's a good thing, not normally associated with wrath in that context, but His pure brilliance. Sheesh. Everyone knows that... - Richy

ReplyDeletei just arose from my
closet
wherest i could not
commune sweetly with
mine God.
for i, too, had these things
against the mate
that i, alas i, have
chosen by my mighty arm
and mine great prevailing
wisdom
and oh
alas
the fire raged mercilessly
inside mine vexed heart
and cries were not heard
when in high tremoring voices
of pitched decibels they rise
in outraged cry against
deafened ears.
so
my
friend
we,
who are of
the gentler
sex
we,
the
great
nurturers
of all
mankind
when
they are
yet infantile.....
we
do
not understand
these things
be
they
testosterone
driven
or
just the
acts of
one so otherworldly and
preoccupied
yet
i
take comfort
in this
one
thing...
.......
......
.....
i,
yes! and even
thee!
We are
alone......
out!
these silly sayings
are probably
because for the last
three days i have
woken up
bing!
at 2 skinking AM
thanks for sharing though!
ooops
ReplyDeletei meant
NOT
N O T
alone
for no temptation has overtaken
us but such which
is common to man!
and with
such
God will make
a way of escape
we
just
have
to
FIND
it
ALREADY!!!!!!
