all of a sudden Joe leaped up from his recliner and said “I’m gonna do it, finally I’m gonna do it, Ethel! Are you in?” Ethel woke up from her doze off watching Jon Snow getting stabbed, her third attempt to watch GoT.
“Do what? What are you yelling about?”
“I’m not yelling”, Joe yelled back. I’m gonna go down to Pete’s Motor Shop and get that two seater motorcycle I, uh, We, have been looking at so we can ride across the good ‘ol USA of A! I’ve always wanted to and it will be a trip of a lifetime…we can see the grandkids in Florida and Joe Jr.’s new home in Alaska!” “

“Trip of a lifetime? It will end our lifetime, you mean.” Ethel dozed off again as Jon Snow’s life poured out on the dirt.

Esther’s Prompt

Gertrude Stein’s “a rose is a rose is a rose”…remember that? It is from a 1913 poem named “Sacred Emily”, to me a rather strange long poem, but I am not GS! I know as a child we read many books and certain poem lines stick with you. However I believe the line is true, I see a beautiful rose and appreciate its beauty and scent. The term rosy as in rosy cheeks is definitely an interpretation I love. Rose colored glasses seems to me to be a sad meaning. What do you think?

It seemed like someone in the world would speak a word that shows he cares. He felt the firm arm’s wound, a spiral slash that would end up an interesting scar at least. Was his vice worth the pain? Here, now, he had second thoughts, but the word of his bravery was already the topic of conversation among his peers. It was too late now.

The child ran to a sometimes safe haven, under his bed. It wouldn’t be able to protect him for long because they would keep searching until the anger and frustration would cost him for trying to keep in safety. Maybe their drunken state would render them in solitude. Why the judge ignored his pleas and disbelieved his words, he didn’t know. It seemed he no longer cared for children’s states of living.

Hold up Charlie! I’m not crossing that bridge! Take another route, please! Charlie saw the vision, sure a stone hand, but he’s not going into no man’s land. He’d rather take a chance on being squeezed, than driving through the jungle with the drop on you trees…Drop on you trees, what are you talking about? I never heard of dangerous trees on that route. They decided to travel on the bridge, even paid fees, and that’s when they felt a terrible unease. The hand came alive and then they were seized.
