A great read-aloud piece. Humorous interaction between the tapping pen psycho and the narrator with the silent keyboard. Love how he talked the thief out of wanting it especially the part about rhyme.

LOL! A good one, Vance. The plot foiled by a clever, quick-thinking poet--YOU. I got a kick out of this amusing piece. Don't mess with my computer or interfere with my poetry. Marilyn

Well, with all the gun violence, I didn't think this was as funny a situation that you meant it to be. Glad it was only imagined. And yes, that clicking sound can be silenced as a setting on the iPad. Hope all's well, Vance!

This little story that you made was awfully good in many ways. It rhymed quite well and the antidote was, quite a silly note. He did get his due, the bad guy, but then left a you with a fluke too. So, I did get a chuckle, maybe two, within this story you so blindly told, on a line to line kind of rhyme. Sherman541

This writing gave me my laugh for the day. It is humorous and well written. I truly enjoyed every word of this silly ditty. I haven't reviewed any of your work for a while and look what I have been missing. LOL

Smiles, it was fun reading and thank you for sharing.

    Hello, dearest!! indeed i was dealing with one of those non-ignorable mind dumps and just had to share the fun with anyone who might enjoy the trip! NO illegal drugs, or alcohol were involved,, but given the amount of meds I'm on with Alzheimer's, there are no dimensions that are listed to be out of possibilities...frankly, even to be in..possibilities! Love and hugs! Vance

Okay Vince, you have me hooked on this ditty. Imagination is diversity, and there's a lot here!
It was easier to read than I first anticipated . Trying to focus on anything with anoying noisy people is hard. Well explained in verse?

Would you do me the honor of writing your view about having Alzheimer's? I want to include it in my book, " VOICES OF BRAIN CHALLENGES"

    Thanks for you delightful, generous review and stars, so sincerely appreciated! Vance. Re: I wrote a poem related to my experience and will forward it from my portfolio but it primarily deals with the blessing I received in the form of a tiny puppy. as to the overall perspectives when I learned that I had ALZ, I was told that it was not a cure-able disease and death would be a surety in a non-predictable time period! Two doctors later I was offered an opportunity to join a clinical trial program for a new drug, which I've now been in for over two years and feeling very normal...although they do not report if the drug is actually working....I feel that it must be! but everything about them and it is super top secret so i cannot offer more on that. It is difficult to relate in any really meaningful terms what it's like to be told that you have a disease which is 100% terminal and you are certainly going to die but ....in a non-predictable time period. Personally, it was my decision at that time to put my faith in GOD and keep my prayers consistent and sincere. That is the most confident thing anyone can do, if they are indeed, a 'TRUE BELIEVER"..(which I am and always have been). I hope this helps and I'm always open to help you in any way! Vance

You have a good imagination here in your poem. I only noticed an error in the title. I think you mean 'dilemma'. I noticed nothing else and thanks for sharing your poem, Ana.
