Dont Speak My Mouth

This morning i tell my mouth "please don't speak lips remain sealed hold it in my tongue." But my crazy brain goes like "It is about time he needs to know!" "He should know!" So it spoke "Am not particularly fond of you infact i don't like you!" Screamed at my boss. My boss being that scary guy the scary guy whose name on the corner office 5th floor. The scary boss who gives a warning letter on a dismissal letter head effective immediately. I told my mouth "Speak not!" "Kindly hold it." But my spirit won't contain the hiss. My scary boss who house the cold corner office gave me a blank stare left without a word. You see that's scary my scary boss loves to be adored Acknowledge Worshiped feared oh!and he love to punish humiliate make example of... So when he left gagged i knew i should have shut it! "Put a leash on your tongue" Often i tell my mouth "You have a voice so loud why be tame?" Often it does retorts. .... ..... ..... ...... ..... ...... Till my scary boss 5th floor knocks on his window summon with his famous "two finger" call into his cold office "Mouth you will behave!"
