Mourning Madness
2007

Ring! Ring! Ring! I am startled by the noise of my alarm clock and fall out of bed onto the cold, dirty, wet floor and try figure out what time it is. I gaze at my watch for a moment and see that its seven o’clock. As I squirm out of the ocean of garbage on the floor trying to get to my before the giant cockroaches awoke to find their prisoner out of bed when he wasn’t told to get out of bed. You see my world received a container about two years ago from your filth ball planet containing radiated roaches. Being about three millimeters tall, we had no choice but to give them our freedom and people for slaves or they’d spit acid at us and watch us melt to the ground and then slurp the puddles up through bendy straws.
So any way I freed myself from the tangled, ever weaving trash heap on the floor and thrust myself upon my so called “bed”. At that very moment the roaches awoke from their deep sleep and called me to fetch them some “breakfast” and a bottle of shell polish. I obeyed and retrieved the usual…rotten eggs, musty bananas and a soggy orange peel and then set of to give them their food. As I arrived I remembered they wanted a bottle of shell polish but forgot it when I was getting their breakfast from the local dump. I quickly dropped the crap, ran out the door and headed for the dump as fast as I could. As I turned the corner of my prison cell they saw me and thought I was running away.
They jumped on their legs and scooted after me with great haste. Of course I thought they didn’t like me any more and were tired of waiting for their food so decided to make a slushy out of me. I moved my legs fast and faster and faster until I couldn’t see anything. But going faster and faster and faster wasn’t good enough for them so they just used four legs to run on instead of two out of six. Just then I feel nothing under my feet and looked down to find I was flying through the air.
I feel something latched onto my shoulders. I look up to find that cockroach with red light bulbs on its antennas is flying while holding onto me and thought it was going to take me back to my captors and get a fare share of my guts after I was dissolved but he just kept on flying and landed about ten minuets later and guess what he said. He said get me some breakfast and some shell polish! After saving me from an evil fate he gives me the exact same stuff the other things told me to get them. This I didn’t forget the shell polish though but he made me do a whole bunch of errands!
