I'm seeing a lot of "lost dog" posters around town.
My wife says I've been sleep-walking.
I hope those aren't connected.

My little boy was playing 'Doctors' with his friend Emily yesterday.
I wasn't worried... then he showed me the scalpel.

Thanks! I'd take the hint, but after all, you are an unreliable narrator.unreliable narrator wrote:Strawman opened his present excitedly.

Uncomprehending, he gazed at the zippo in his hand.
Happy birthday strawman!

Satnav Indecision
Car ahead moves slowly, uncertainly. Stopping? No... Yes?
Drive past, cautious.
Car moves off, stops again.

Terror of the tumbler
Incessant beep beep beep beeping.
Will it never stop?
I can't go on.
The torture.
Suppose I could empty the tumble drier.

Compulsion
"Try it", she said. It's safe.
A fool, I was.
Now an irresistible compulsion.
Oh, the longing!
Embrace the Drabblemire.

Inappropriate
Her eyes met mine. Ruby lips inviting.

Once in a lifetime
It's like flying, he thought, as cold air rushed past, his eyes streaming.
All too soon it was over.
Sadly unrepeatable.

Inversion
The hill haunted his dreams.
Brooding. Dark.
Now at its summit, he saw the truth.
The dream was reality. His fate sealed.

Clean exit
And finally... (for now)
The toilet paper CEO frowned.
That new once a week pill means the end.
The results are undeniable.

Unwelcome attention
OK, so I lied...
It's there again. Unblinking at the window.
I avert my eyes but it persists.
The inscrutable stare of a coral-pink rose.

Don't trust the stuffed boar in your uncle's attic. If it offers you eternal life, ask to use the bathroom. Do not return.
