Mystery Box

What’s in it?

I know what I’m told is in it, but I haven’t seen with my own eyes.

Can’t open it without knowing the combination.

The combination is in the sealed envelope.

Will curiosity get the better of me? Or will I put it away somewhere and not think about it for a while?

Scorpion pop

This thing is sitting on my desk. I picked it up in some middle-of-nowhere town on my way to LA a few months ago.

I keep seeing it, and thinking, “Oh, apple lollipop!”

But then I remember the crunchy center.

…Mostly, I think what’s keeping me from eating it is that then I wouldn’t have it anymore.
