Sandman’s Q and A

***

We lived far away from towns and I was not able to be in any groups like that.

A merit badge? Trying to maintain a sense of humor?

I haven’t done any ghost hunting except for a seance with neighbors where one tried to talk to her mom. It was the 60’s😄

No. One time my husband and I were in our private backyard pool…never mind.

Disco Dan

The hard edge metal beat would allow for Dan’s dance moves, magnifying his apparent physical advantages. The club owner would permit these gyrations as long as the neighborhood association went along with it. They would grant a liquor license if the community approved. Dan’s divorcee’ neighbors voted an overwhelming “aye” when it came before the controlling neighborhood association.

Cyranny’s 1MinFic

The critic stared
as the chef prepared
a vegetarian feast
featuring the least
favorite of the critic’s tongue
the chef cared not if he won
the critic’s vote
the critic knew not of what he wrote.

Fandango’s Story Starter – Time’s up Flatfoot

yell at her apprentice again. His apologetic “oops” just didn’t cut it anymore. The robust prisoner in the last cell was always causing a disturbance of some kind but all he really wanted was some attention. He wasn’t even exceptionally cagey with his performance. If the young recruit couldn’t get his act together to be an actual guard, she would have to tell him he was fired.

3TC+ Foiled

***

He mimicked her with an insouciant whine as he tightened the nylon twine on the gristle of her neck. He teased her, copying her wine induced totter to the divan. That was to be his own undoing as she tripped him with her free leg and he fell into the glass coffee table fracturing his own scraggly nape.

Word Craft Poetry

Are you ready for a #TankaTuesday theme prompt? Ken Gierke(Rivrvlogr) from last month’s challenge picked the theme:
TRANSITIONS
***

not always welcome

daily changes cause stumbling

sticking to old ways

may comfort but are listless

a new you is welcoming

dVerse Poets – Quadrille

***

She was superstitious to a fault
Always throwing her spilled salt
“Wards off penance” is what she thought
As previous generations had taught
“It will keep me safe” she crowed
Believe me, to her it was owed
For the many evil ways she sowed.
