So, you want me to be quiet?
Inside voices, and all that,
Listening intently, only speaking consequently,
Echolocating in the silence like a bat.
Never speak unless spoken to!
Can’t imagine that’s a thing I’ll do.
Everyone, gather round – it's time to chat.
About the Creator

I’m a writer, a storyteller, a lunatic. I imagine in a parallel universe I might be a caricaturist or a botanist or somewhere asleep on the moon — but here, I am a writer, turning moments into multiverses and making homes out of them.
Let's Don't Do This
"I just can't do this anymore..." "Do what?" What can't you do? Put gas in your own car? I swear to God you make me take care of everything, don't you? You know I'm on my way to work right now but that never stops you from bothering me, does it?"
