So, it's been done before, by a million people, from children, to poets, to skilled writers...and now it's my turn, to make some alphabet thing.

I've probably already done one at some point in my life, but it's an idea, is it not? Hmm...actually...what should I do with this?!

Poem? Story? Random rhymey thing?

A little creature laughed and

Bounced to the happy music,

Crying whenever it stopped and

Death surrounded him,

Eating into his brain, exposing his

Fears, and

Generally bothering his

Head.

It wasn't nice for the creature,

Joy had left him alone, after

Killing his friends and family

Like rats in a bag and

Mice in a mousetrap.

Not nice at all.

Of course there was some happiness,

Produced by the music.

Quizzled, I think is the

Right word for how the creature felt.

Sometimes depressed, others just

Teetering on the edge of depression.

Unkindly, people liked to take his music away

Vicious types, who enjoyed

Watching his pain, like a

Xylophone playing on his spinal chord.

Yanking his nerves

Zapping him into a painful, unhappy, grave.
