Ups

... as i sit in the shadow of my house, while waiting for the big brown truck to spawn, i compose a Haiku.

in the big brown truck
is a package for myself
i hope it arrives

sweating, swearing, trying to ignore the mosquitoes, i crouch behind some bushes. my neighbor looks worried again.
"oh yes" i think to myself.. "the UPS man wont expect me to attack from this side again".
i look back at the garage, the cool shade beckons.. nailed to the wall are several tattered UPS hats, if all goes well today i will have another trophy.
squinting in the bright sunlight, i muttered to my self as i glanced at the tire spike strips out in the road "he better stop at my house today". "whats that"?
a distant rumble, barely heard..
could be a school bus, filled with kids... it could be the UPS man.
tricked again! it was the bus. i laughed as they changed the tires.
the UPS man is getting smarter.. last time he had mace. that stuff burns. he thought he could get away by throwing the package at me that time.. little did he know he had to turn around at the end of the neighborhood and come back by.
almost lost my sword in his radiator as he maced me.

well, dark has fallen, the mosquitoes sated.. no UPS man today.
i'll be waiting tomorrow.

pretty good not ROFL, but definately gave me a chuckle.

you get extra points for creativity. a Haiku no less and then a very detailed (and colorful) short story. If is were a school teacher I'd give you an A. It'd be an A+ but I do have to subtract for punctuation.

But then again, on second thought I'd probably give you the A+ anyway, you are a VERY SCAREY PERSON inside aren't you clonetek....




later,
chris haynie
