I used to be handsome, now I’m a statement
All these additions with no abatement
I had wooden embellished sides
I used to be displayed with pride
Now I’m an eyesore, ashamed to be
Everyone stares, I’m a curiosity.

Through the thick smoke of the singed egg dish, she sipped the frothy fresh orange juice. The cottage was filled with the acrid touch of burned breakfast but the juice was a lift she needed this day. She could only hope the decimated kitchen would be her lover’s final straw and he would leave.
An order from her mother, “learn to cook before he leaves you” resonated in her thoughts as she added a bit of whiskey to her fruity drink. How dare she say something like that to me, she thought. What an old fashioned idea. I am not the barefoot and pregnant type and now maybe they will both realize that. Margo sat in her now empty house and started to breathe in freedom.

I think it’s probably a fable
That people are basically stable
That most are quite capable
Of looking at someone and not see a label.
It’s not that they aren’t able
And preconceived notions should be tabled.

We need to be fearless, have faith, and be strong
That’s what it will take, others will follow along
Someone just needs to be first.
➿➿
Be intrepid, take the step forward
Embrace variation and help turn the corner
This awful hatred can be reversed.
➿➿
The seventh inning can be a new beginning.

Okay, cat lovers, read no further! My first thoughts for this Prompt were CATS! They splay their behind in a rude manner, they all should be spayed and the males love to spray their scent everywhere.
In my defense, I’ve had and loved cats, grew up on a dairy farm with many of them that were left on our property, and then with my kids. First a mother cat, and then two adorable kitties, all three from the Dumb Friends League. At times I miss them, but now am allergic. I think dogs are truly man’s best friends.
