I hate sparkles!
No where to run, no place to hide.
Everywhere you go, everything you touch…
A bloody sparkle.
Christmas season, big deal, must everything be bathed in sparkles?
I am in a store, I see this cute stuffed animal…
I pick it up and it’s covered in sparkles.
Arge!
I hate them things!
I run into a friend and she uses lip gloss with sparkles in it…
She leans over and kisses me on the cheek for the holiday and “Bam” I have those damn things all over my face.
Think I was impressed?
Not frigging likely!
I try to rub it off and it spreads onto my sleeve.
I get home tear the shirt off my body and try to wash it,
But they spread even more.
To my Levi’s of all things…
I am far from amused!!
By this time I am losing my mind.
I wash the laundry 10 times, a pail of detergent gone.
Just as long as it washes those freaking things off my clothing.
A few weeks go by, I am happy, no sightings of “sparkles”…
I have a shower, get dressed and head off to work, as my daily routine.
I walk into work and find that the boss had decorated.
“Oh goody” I thought to myself in a sarcastic manner.
Until I get behind the desk and see sparkles starring me right in the face.
Fallen off from all the decorations.
I rolled my eyes and felt a need to keep a safe distance.
They are contagious, like a disease that won’t go away…
You couldn’t pay me enough to get behind that desk.
Then my boss explains that she was running late and needs me to vacuum her mess.
Where did we go wrong here?
I didn’t make the bloody mess and with sparkles of all things…
I wanted to scream.
I did as I was asked and, surprise, surprise…I have them all over me.
In my hair, on my chest…
Then to top things off, a client tells me that I am looking very “pretty” today…
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT?
Pretty?!?
Me, pretty?
Was the man on glue?!?
*grumble*
If you only knew how much I HATE SPARKLES!
I hate those damn tiny sparkly things myself grrrrrrrr can't stand them.
They get all over everything and if you get even ten feet away they seem to be all over you.
pushes roman into a room of sparkles...keep them away.

I loved the poem Jack!
But I do know what you mean .... along with sparkles another one that irritated me each year was the static electric icicle do dads people always seem to think they need on their trees. They still sell that stuff!! Thank goodness I have an excuse to NOT use sparkles OR icicles ... I have cats ... and they'd try to eat 'em! lol
Thanks for sharing this ..... made me laugh
(((((((JR))))))
