Fandango’s Flashback Friday
“The general consensus is that androids feel no emotions. With the ever evolving technology, especially by the androids themselves, this is not true. AI is with us now, and we have to accept we can no longer control their actions. Be advised there will be no further penalties for the androids, and/or their behavior. Please read this memo with careful consideration.”

Can You Tell A Story In…
The Writer’s Workshop
***
I chose number 4:
I so love the chore of cleaning floors.
I can’t think of anything I’d like to do more!
Well I probably shocked you with that last bit,
But wheeling myself with a vacuum is a welcomed trick
And let’s not forget I use a mop, a Swiffer
Getting off stains takes strong arms, stiffened
To scrub and scrub and then see it’s clean
What a delight! I mean…
Mopping and then rolling over it to create more work
You probably think I’m a jerk!
But as most things in life you have to agree
A clean floor satisfies a selfish need
It started when I was a child
My mother’s cleaning was never mild
Scrub till it shines was her advice
That’s what I think when my floors’ look nice.

Writing Prompts
Rigid YKW
How come you’re so rigid?
Why are you so stubborn
Can’t you even listen
To the cries of those so burdened?
You have been a leader
In the worst of sense
I hope you never get that chance again
And good caring leaderships commence.

July 31, a sad day for me
Forty-eight years ago, I see with grief
A long time, you think, but I’ll never forget
The mother I knew but realize we never really met
Leaving home early, and I was happy to go
But I was young and what did I know
I miss her still today.
