“Photographer Daniel Fisher prepares for an exhibition of his war images, and is appealed to by a refugee to exclude images of a massacre which wiped out his home.”

“Gullible” Grands

***

Children are masters of manipulation

In childhood we received compensation

For a job well done…we would exaggerate

On the work involved and time it would take

A quick recovery was often supplied

(Reward from grandparents on the side)

Fandango’s Story Starter

This week’s Story Starter teaser is: HE COULDN’T BELIEVE THAT SHE WAS DUMPING HIM JUST BECAUSE SHE FOUND OUT…he liked liver and onions! He grew up on a ranch and besides beef steak, calves’ liver was weekly fare. Now chicken liver was an altogether disgusting prospect…he was a cowboy! His lifelong tradition would be the dissolution of their relationship since the entire idea of organ meat disgusted the vegetarian.

Dashed Hopes

Stretching my personal imagination I may observe an earthly pink dusty mountain similar to a Mars landscape. The opposite of an engineer, I might explore the fourth planet from the sun as a possibility, a glimmer of hope for future generations. The unlikely idea of inhabiting the red planet may captivate my mind but I think I will not find any green men. (Sigh)

Fandango’s Flash Fiction Challenge

This can’t be it, he thought, there’s no way have I spent my life searching for an ultimate being, a ruler of all things! My quest ends here and my disappointment is overwhelming. Joe had followed the trails as spoken and written by the wisest spiritual men on earth. He had spent years traveling and searching only to find this? Human heads? He turned and walked out of the heralded space. He decided there was no superior entity or wanted hope to be found.
