  1. Mouse struck a #defiant pose, arms on his hips. "You cannot enter the fort! Only members of the secret club can go in."

    Apple looked hurt. "I thought you liked me, Mouse. Is it because I have a limp?"

    "Of course not! I do like you. But there are only three seats in the fort. And we didn't think you'd be comfortable standing, you know, because of your leg."

    "What if I brought a seat?"

    "Oh, that would work. You could join the secret club."

    "Will you help me carry it over?"

    "Of course!"

  2. "Help! There's a demon in my prize-winning garden!"

    "What is it?"

    "A #hyacinth, best in class."

    "... I meant the monster."

    "Oh. A goat."

  3. The west wind jealous
    In his fury killed the one he loved
    Shed Hyacinths blood

    #MastoPrompt

    The name comes from Greek mythology: Hyacinth was killed by Zephyrus, the god of the west wind, jealous of his love for Apollo. He then transformed the drops of Hyacinth's blood into flowers.

  4. The pale threads were already passing things along: water, phosphorus, the chemical news of root and rot. Then the forests fell. First heat, then ash. A sudden surplus of the dead. And underground: take in, dissolve, transform. There is less light now. There is more death here. Carry it onward.

  5. @stevencudahy #MastoPrompt#antics

    A furry pinball,
    Has limitless energy,
    Zooms round and around.

  6. frantically aging, subtle and proud, antics, with age, no longer allowed, days of wanton disregard, so far away and so few, seeing the world with childs eyes, no longer a point of view, rolling down hills, with the sunshine on my face, the world has become a quiter place, the horizon used to seem endless and far away, we could never reach the end of our dreams, even if we ran for days~T.F. Burke, No Longer

  7. A #gilded afternoon landscape. Beneath a tree, I stretch in its shade like a #kitten. The #ringing laughter of a child cuts through the choir of a #zillion birds.

    Time to #burn the old bridges and choose life.

    the bright gilded envelope /

  9. when my nose bleeds I try not to move. frozen in space and time on the edge of a dream. silence and blue lights. capillary crime scene. failed Time Lord, I watch a red drop fall to my pillow in slow mo. not the good sheets! then I spring into action, innocence lost. shuffle to the bathroom, commune with toilet paper. I win the war but lose the battle. the good sheets no more.
