A Poem - "Corner Time"
How I hate Corner Time,
standing straight and tall.
But when you leave the room,
I slump against the wall!
I feel so very childish,
I feel so very small,
I feel so very angry,
as the clock ticks in the hall.
What time is it I wonder?
Why did you take my watch?
I cannot take this torment!
I didn’t ‘dis’ you much!!
I stare into the corner,
hands clasped behind my neck.
My angry tears start falling,
Oh, what the f---ing heck!!
I hear your footsteps coming,
Is this the end? I’m glad!
I smile at you angelically,
but you know that I’ve been bad!
You take the Loopy Johnny,
and whip my butt real good.
I must do Corner Time again,
but this time - it’s in the nude!!

thank you for stopping by my blog & bringing it to my attention that storm & i were kinda hard to track down!! i enjoy your blog and can't wait to read more from the both of you!!
Hi Wind Walker,
I have bookmarked you but would really like to link to you. May we do this? R doesn't come home till next week so if agreeable by you he will do it then (I'm a bit of a technophobe and have no idea how to do such things!LOL!)
What is that carving on your paddle? It looks like a root vegetable of some description? Is it a large oversized yam??
C
actually, i'm not sure what a yam looks like (lol), but the design on my paddle is a feather that's wrapped on the bottom with ribbons. it's based on an native american custom and storm loves the idea of feeling a feather imprint...
i would love to be linked!
Sorry, we call them yams over here (UK) I think in the US and Canada you call them sweet potatoes?
R will link you in next week :)
When I was in college in the US I asked this guy sitting next to me if I could use his rubber - the poor guy looked totally freaked out! In the UK a rubber means an eraser! Believe me I never made that mistake again!! LOL!!

:) Great poem! Thank you for your comment on my blog.
Hi Storm rider,
I've never actually heard of Dwight Yokum? I didn't think there would be any songs about domestic discipline or corner time? Are there?
C
Storm, for a moment, I thought you were accusing me of plagerism. Lol!
LOL Storm you are funny! Ok, ok, I will get my lazy arse in gear and write something. The only prob is I don't have your imagination so can't think of anything to write. Also your blog is so colorful whilst mine is so boring!
R works away, I havent seen him for 2 weeks... so there hasn't been much opportunity to be punished for doing something naughty ;)
