Goner

mutter about the hair in the drain,

dishes left undone, that gleaming running faucet

drip dripping in the night.

wish for it all later,

tears drip dripping in the night.

Keyboard Hero

Bravery found in the clacking of keys

Voyaging smugly through the Internet seas

Slice through strangers as the judgement drips

Words you type that would never leave your lips.

Sorry Folks.

Maybe we've never seen a hillbilly magician before

Because he accidentally barbecued the bunnies,

Used his cards for beer coasters (because of the Mrs.),

And his buddy borrowed the saw.

United Forever

His intentions were unheard of,

“Forever we shall be”

Absurd in all it’s nature

For all time, you and me

Unbroken

Their farcical fight,

Completely covered with paint,

Made mother smile.

A lost home, a father gone.

Kids still play, and love yet grows.

Prose Challenge of the Week #26

Good morning, Prosers,

We hope this post finds you all well.

It’s week twenty-six of the Prose Challenge of the Week; how on earth has it been six-months since we started this? Last week we asked you to write about cowardice, and there were some goodies to be read.

Before we find out which one of you takes the $100 prize, let’s take a look at this week’s prompt:

Prose Challenge of the Week #26: Write the hottest story in ten words only. The winner will be chosen based on a number of criteria, this includes: fire, form, and creative edge. Number of reads, bookmarks, and shares will also be taken into consideration. The winner will receive $100. When sharing to Twitter, please use the hashtag #ProseChallenge

Turn up the temperature right now.

Back to the winner of week twenty-five. We have read all of your entries and thoroughly enjoyed every single one. There can only be one winner, however, and after much deliberation that winner is, @Opuriche with their piece “A Noble Coward.” Congratulations to you, we will be in touch shortly to arrange transfer of your winnings!

That’s all for this week, here’s to a week filled with all things Prose!

Until next time, Prosers,

Prose.
