An error in judgment
The article read
A sudden flash
And Joe was dead
His body lay in a smoke filled pile
Never expecting his end so vile.

MLMM Wordle #213
Joe leaned back on the brick wall, lighting a cigarette, a dismal reward in his current life’s casserole of despair. In his mind, he had good intelligence on the building, but as he heard the clatter of gunfire, he knew the hardened agonist inside him was wrong.
Plans were made and even as numerous naysayers tried to discourage him, he found a solution to satisfy them. The extra mundane details would not matter in the long run, or so he thought.
When his gang stealthily entered the warehouse, a single bark from a watchdog gave the group an eldritch feeling, but when the police whistle accompanied several armed men, Joe knew it was over.

Trump Tantrums
So much for diversity, the prolific hate continues. To divulge his needed verdict, he discounts the count.

Saturday Six Word Story – Stars
SoCS 11-7-20
Bonjour mes amis! If I was going to journal this day, I would begin with cloudy but warm. Snow a week ago but now this. Weird.
All here in USA are waiting for ballot counting to be finished and hopefully adjourn old orange brain’s rule. My meal du jour will be a chicken sandwich. Right now I need coffee. It may be warm outside at 55F but my apartment is always cold.
Have an outstanding jour!
MLMM Tale Weaver – Blind Date
He knew she would love it
Bought it with pride
Along with the roses
He kept at his side
Nothing plain for her, he would think
Bubbly pink champagne for her drink
He rang the bell
Stood on the step waiting
All the while anticipating
How the night would end
With her in his arms
And she fascinated by his charms
The door opened and there she stood
Surprised him, thinking he’d been misunderstood
In a ratty bathrobe, bleached hair in curls
He knew this couldn’t be his girl
After meeting online and arranging a date
Realized she had fooled him–what a fate.
Slightly shocked he turned to leave
Champagne and flowers under his sleeve
The old woman called out as he left
My daughter will meet you out on the step
He turned back to see the image he’d seen
On the dating site on his computer screen
She had a laugh and so did her mother
The joke was on him–what a bother
The date was fun. They laughed a lot
This turned out well but your date might not.

Prompts for the Pic
My first thought at callipygian was, you’re killin’ me Smalls!
For the other prompts I wanted to use this newspaper clipping
Good news needed while we’re kept in suspense
And the lights going up is promising it all
Christmas is coming and my spirits are dipping
But this guy in the tree is making fun sense
He may have callipygian form – I can’t see
Besides, he’s up in a tree!
I’m just glad they’re keeping tradition
For bored isolation it’s good ammunition.

RDP: Paint
If I was as talented as my sisters are
I’d paint a portrait of my life so far
I’ve been a lucky person, had some ups and downs
But on the whole, had lots more smiles than frowns.
The year has not been a pretty one, some old hatreds on display
On the positive, our family has the Covid plague at bay
Never take for granted the lovely scenes around
Or the love of a family that we have abound.
