1. Battery 2. Guitar 3. Prey
Charge your guitars
Tune your Batteries
No, I got that wrong.
Charge your tunes
Batter your guitars.
That's not right either.
*ahem*
Battery was the blood
Guitar was the sword
The quest for music realized
When you struck that chord
A concert is a battlefield
At the end of the day
Were you the hunter
Or were you the prey?
1. Chair 2. Portrait 3. Clockwork
The last thing I saw was a crooked portrait on the wall.
The last thing I felt was the chair I sat on.
The last thing I heard was the final tick of my heart's clockwork.
The last thought I had was of her.
1. A burnt vest 2. Onions 3. A moped
"For the love of crème brûlée, what is going on here?" the chef shrieked.
Ron tried to put out the fire with the first thing that he found - some cloth laying around. It worked. The fire was out and he exhaled in relief.
Ron shook the cloth out and spread it out.
"Dang it to the Moon, Ron! That's my favorite vest! I asked you to sauté the onions, not burn down my kitchen! Get your ass out of here!"
Ron got on his moped and fled before the chef noticed what he'd done in the freezer.
1. Bathysphere 2. Marshmallow 3. Cineplex
A crowded cineplex cafe
Needs a bathysphere
To navigate through the sea
Of hungry marshmallow-lovers
(btw, a bathysphere is an underwater vessel)
1. A broken knife 2. Stool 3. A bear's tooth"Mama, Mama!" cried the little bear.
"Oh, dear. Mama's busy making a stool."
"I lost a tooth!"
"Oh, dear," mama worried. "How?"
"I was trying to bite a knife. It broke and I lost a tooth. Mama, since when do bears make furniture?"
"It's not that type of stool, dear."
1. A ripped book 2. A lamp 3. Crawfish
I walked the beach at night and found a book in the sand. I sat down and asked the Moon for help.
"Find a lamp," he said.
I left the beach and sat under a street lamp. I opened the book and a crawfish crawled out of it, holding ripped pages in its claws.
"Get your own book," it said.
