⚠️⚠️Rant😡⚠️⚠️

I am soooo tired of these Republican congress persons berating people in the military and acting like teenage spoiled brats, bullying, accusing, whining, and spouting garbage out of their privileged mouths, I can’t even read a news story anymore. It is too frustrating! Getz and Greene and others never served in the military, so why are they even entitled to an opinion and who is it coming from?

From “Vanity Fair“

How do these sickening excuses for government representation even get elected?

They are disgusting (human) beings and should not be allowed in ANY government office.

The Sunday Whirl

Joey moved to the window since sleep was not coming, again. He was much older than his years and the void of his missing mother seemed too strong at night. In the day he could laugh and pretend with his dad, watch him try to fill it, teaching him his mother’s way of doing things, even cooking, and the sorrow was remote for a while.

Standing by the sill, his fingertips unconsciously tracing patterns and lines in the condensation, he remembered each special moment he had with her. He brushed the lines away, and the tears started over again.

He pleaded with the moon and that single bright star to bring her back, to ease his pain. Then as if on cue, his dad came in behind him and held him tightly. “I miss her terribly too, Joey.”

Winds ramped up,
Detached the spheres of color
In leaf piles, awaiting death in plastic bags or funeral pyres
Such a shame, such sadness for my heart
What once adorned plain brown limbs with incredible colors, and shapes
Now reduced to blackened ash debris.

Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge

She thought this window was clear a moment ago. Touching the glass now, it felt cold and she could no longer see the garden. A moment ago he was walking there, picking a few rose blooms for her, she was sure of it! Now the sun had disappeared, the grayness must have swallowed him and even rain shown through the glass. “I knew I saw him…it was sunny” she thought, desperately. Then that old familiar unraveling began again.

3TC – Dissing Decorum

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

“Why do you always have to ruin everything! Now take your pampered spoiled self back home and if and when you return, show some concern for the departed!”

Joe didn’t consider himself henpecked, but his drunken disheveled appearance at his father-in-law’s funeral epitomized his hate for the man and his marriage as a whole.
