Punxsutawney Phil

Watching the groundhog emerging from its lair, grief and pother spread among the crowd as heavy snow started falling immediately.

3TC – Nightmare

Your three words today are:
SUDDEN
RARE
SELECT

A sudden sharp pain was felt

He staggered and then knelt

Saw the stranger, a sight not rare

Across, just in a chair

Noticed only fingers long, no neck

Watched as “it” decided which to select

From a shaft of needles long and thin

Hoped this was only the nightmare, again.

The Sunday Whirl

***

A sliver of light flashed as she lit the match. Her plans to commit the crime and of course she never thought it a crime, had changed in the last few minutes. The hours which she had spent on figuring out how to do it were about to drive her crazy when suddenly a breath of clarity came to her. She decided not to mail the written note after all, she would burn it instead. As the fireplace clock sent it’s midnight chime, she watched the ashes fall and plunged the knife to her heart.
