| | "The moon is definitely made of cheese....some spectacular well-aged
sharp cheddar" he said quite grandly. "And those rich mice that live on
the moon....they want to have us believe the moon isn't made of cheese
so that we common mice who have never been to the moon don't ask for
our share.' His whiskers trembled with righteous indignation as he
addressed the crowd of mice assembled in the kitchen from his perch on
the box of Frosties cereal. "If you pick me to lead us, not only shall
I head to the moon, but I will kick out all the fat mice with arteries
clogged from cheese...Together, we can bring change"
"And now my fellow meeses, join me in drinking from this bottle of
'hope' water as an act of solidarity" he announced, taking a big gulp
and spilling it all over himself in the process. "Fortunately, we've
been getting a lot of traction" he said as he wiped off the watery
wetness from behind his curiously big ears with a handkerchief. "From
the mice that live near the pot of mac 'n cheese, to our fellowmice on
Juicy Peak, and right back to the footsteps of this cerealbox, the hope
of unlimited cheese...the drums of hope if you will, resound!!!"
The crowd burst into thunderous applause. "Gosh...can you imagine what
we're even going to do with all that cheese once it starts coming in
from the moon" gushed Anony mouse to his neighbor. "I would love to
pick him to lead our pack. But the missus has promised it's going to be
liver for dinner every night for a month if i don't vote for that
girl-mouse Felicia Domesticus"
'Meh, I dunno...I quite like that girl mouse myself' replied Dichoto
Mouse. "She's so exotic looking too...with the thick soft fur, her
sharp manicured fingernails and green eyes. Besides, she can even speak
fluently in Cat-alan. That will come in really handy when she needs to
negotiate with the enemy. Did you hear about her plan to send one mouse
a day to the moon for an all-you-can-eat cheese buffet in her new 4MAN
Grille 5000 rocket? I can hardly wait for my turn!"
"Yeah...she definitely does have a lot going for her." agreed Anony. My
daughter went for one of her rallies and now keeps practicing that
dance move that Felicia taught them...the one where she points at
individual mice in the crowd and then smacks her lips...you've seen it
on TV, right?"
"Absolutely!! I always get hot and bothered every time they play that clip! Rowrrr!!"
"I just hope she doesn't become leader of the pack and then steal our
cheese like all our previous leaders" Anony said gloomily. "They all
swear to share, but end up keeping not just the cheese, but the milk,
cream, butter and every other form of dairy for themselves."
"Naaaah...we have nothing to be worried about" declared Dichoto. "The
Domesticuses have always been generous with dairy. Don't you remember
when Felicia's husband gave away his personal stash of cream to all the
girl-mouse folk in his building when he was leader?" |
