HAhaha...

:) So evocative.

I enjoyed it. Just a thought though. At this rate you will grow paranoid.. :)

How you you call fear of toothbrush :)

I like it. The thought is brilliant and was expressed in such a creative way. You've told a story in a few words and without directly telling it. You've achieved the saying "show not tell". Amazing write.

Keep Writing. ^___^

That's a lot of emotion packed into 17 syllables- great haiku.

On second reading I find it cynically beautiful.

I agree with Persephoneia

I guess that toothbrush should take a hike, along with its owner. You say a lot with a little. Maybe it's my odd sense of humor, but it made me snicker a little.

Great piece.
Simple, but conveys SO much.
