Fandango’s Story Starter – Time’s up Flatfoot

yell at her apprentice again. His apologetic “oops” just didn’t cut it anymore. The robust prisoner in the last cell was always causing a disturbance of some kind but all he really wanted was some attention. He wasn’t even exceptionally cagey with his performance. If the young recruit couldn’t get his act together to be an actual guard, she would have to tell him he was fired.

3TC+ Foiled

He mimicked her with an insouciant whine as he tightened the nylon twine on the gristle of her neck. He teased her, copying her wine induced totter to the divan. That was to be his own undoing as she tripped him with her free leg and he fell into the glass coffee table fracturing his own scraggly nape.

Word Craft Poetry

Are you ready for a #TankaTuesday theme prompt? Ken Gierke(Rivrvlogr) from last month’s challenge picked the theme:
TRANSITIONS
***

not always welcome

daily changes cause stumbling

sticking to old ways

may comfort but are listless

a new you is welcoming

dVerse Poets – Quadrille

***

She was superstitious to a fault
Always throwing her spilled salt
“Wards off penance” is what she thought
As previous generations had taught
“It will keep me safe” she crowed
Believe me, to her it was owed
For the many evil ways she sowed.

Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge

***

The doctor was hardly sympathetic

I doubt she had many ethics

I sat awaiting her decision

She asked what was my vision

Would I come out with defeated mind

My femininity declined?

I replied that I would not

It hadn’t entered my thoughts

I was just glad to get rid of the disease

It was the cancer that made me feel unease

Even now so many years later

I would hardly rate her

As the best OBGYN oncologist

Certainly no psychologist

My concern was my physical being

Couldn’t envision forward thinking

I survived which was my goal

No matter what she had told.
