“I’ve told you a thousand times to take that stuff down, now you have all afternoon, so get it done!”
Julie’s mom stormed out of the bedroom. Julie looked lovingly at the display, remembering all the good times before the divorce.
Julie didn’t blame anyone, it was just tough times and job loss and sickness combined, that caused her parents to leave each other. Julie had to split her affection and memories between them and this display was a needed reminder of better times.
Perhaps Julie’s mom shared those memories also, and could not bear to see them every day.

The Prez🙄
I know–enough Trump posts! I hear you groan, but today’s prompts just fit. . .
The commander in chief, aka scalawag
Tries to juggle results, not packing his bags
A moue is seen on the orange face
While being escorted out of OUR place.

Cyranny’s 1Min Fiction
It was done. She hoped it wouldn’t rain before he read it. The secret chalked messages between them were the only way the teenage lovers could communicate.
Parental units are so controlling!

One way to train your brain- think positive!
From the movie “Auntie Mame” starring Rosalind Russell:
“Life’s a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death!”

I see a picture
A future now completed
See some thankful vibes
Hope is once again in view
Follow through for all, needed.

“Gee willikers, Batman! I’m sure glad you have that cape! It’s freezing out here!” Robin wasn’t so lucky. His wimpy suit was not made of the same indestructible rubber and he felt every cold wind while standing on top of the Chrysler building. Apparently someone activated the Batman signal and his boss was trying to see who needed help. Robin thought it was too bad he didn’t have Daredevil’s hearing and he’d know right away!
New Yorkers were always calling upon superheroes for their talents, or gifts as some called them. Robin decided to phone Jessica Jones to see if she knew anything. Luke Cage answered the phone while JJ was out investigating a new case. “If you need me, I could be there in a few minutes, just let me know.” Luke’s indestructible body was only harmed by his now friend, Iron Fist, so he was perfectly capable if needed.
Batman seemed to be using his radar skills to hone in on a disturbance nearby. “Whoa! Batman, it’s wild you can feel those sound waves!” Robin never ceased to be impressed by B’s skills.
“Well, of course, Robin! Now let’s jump into the bat mobile and do some good!”
“Woohoo, anything you say, big B!” Both men flew to a known location for criminals, where all hell was breaking loose. “Wait! I think I just saw the Penguin sneak into the sewer.”
“Let him go, it’s the Joker I want.” Batman flew into the crowd and grabbed the Joker, swinging him up into the bat mobile. The crowd dispersed and everyone was now safe. The Joker was dropped off at the nearest precinct, where Jim Gordon was the reliable chief in charge.
Later that day, the group of heroes, except for JJ, joined up for a steak barbecue at Luke’s place in Harlem. Robin was impressed. “Wow, Batman, this guy knows how to cook!”

dVerse Poetics – Witness
Sirens wailing, speeding trucks, and I could only stand aghast
First responders leaping out their doors, rushing to the cars at last
A child crying for her mother who had already left this plane, loud equipment sawed open a door holding her prisoner failed and I thought this seemed insane
The newest firefighter saw his sister in there bound, as I watched him furiously trying to save her on the ground
His vision was not true, his sister was safely home
Adrenalin can play tricks, it is well known.
