Thought his mom was going nuclear
Announced he’d remain a bachelor
No grandchildren?
She committed assault with a spatula.

I was lucky , but thought no cause for alarm. I say lucky because I should have called 911. I did survive and then spent ten days in the hospital because it turns out I had a heart attack. My family who was mostly out of town at the time admonished me for not calling the emergency service. Guess what they think is true, I’m immortal😳😀.

It was a night like any other, New York City in evening street lights. A slight snowfall landing on bunched up woolen overcoats, and streets shiny slick with the first winter snowfall. New Yorkers pay no mind as they traverse slippery sidewalks to reach their destinations. Traffic is slow and minimized for the regular Friday night crowds, everyone thinking the weather too chilled for a fun night out. Restaurants emptied out early because the news reports predicted a storm, but the regulars living downtown do not let that bother them. It was Friday night and that day has significant meanings.

a tall scarecrow looms
repels nearby hungry crows
soggy corn stalks droop
as they absorb too cool rains
ghoul bends in drenched attire

Fandango’s Story Starter #223



July 4, anytime in the seventies
Children looked forward to festivities
We gathered supplies
To the fascinated eyes
Of our three little celebrators.
I often think back how it was
Eager actions and thoughts
Lighting sparklers we bought
Excitement seeing brightness of the lot.

Quadrille #234: A Sparkler of a Day

The great scent went right to his head
It was his mother’s home baked bread
The smell made him swoon
Even when on the moon
Fellow fliers liked bacon instead.
