    I like the use of the table top as the mousetrap. This combines two contexts - the mousetrap and a dining experience. I also like the use of the brief text. The phrase "open your eyes" is effective in that the use of the second person pronoun connects with the audience. The reference to opening eyes, used in the figurative sense, suggests that we are blind to the dangers right in front of us and thus we might unwittingly stumble upon and be injured by this trap.
