"Invalid Item"  by Paul  is a worthy read. A short study in how the 'wounded' depend on each other. I can attest to this from the days when I was homeless. Seeing the street people, homeless people, Rainbow people with their pets (usually dogs) it becomes apparent how important they are. Every 'facility' (homeless shelter, nursing home, assisted living, prison, half-way house) should have one. For many it's easier to relate to a dog or cat than it is to people. Pets seldom hurt a human, other humans often do.So the story rings true. Only one suggestion ... this needs to be expanded a bit into a short story. It doesn't quite fit well with 'flash'. As is, though, it's a very good, albeit short, read and worthy of at least a 4.5 rating. For
I have an imaginary friend whose birthday is today. He seldom answers the phone. I haven't seen him in years. If he were a dog, he'd be long dead. And I have an imaginary friend who loved me once until he ghosted me. Every first of December I play Sweet Baby James, and think of him. And today I'll avoid looking in the mirror where another imaginary friend has always lived, wondering whether I'll ever say I love him. Hmm... 38/37/38. In three parts it echoes a triveni or sijo (Asian verse), but with far too many syllables! So... autobiographical. I did send a postcard to my friend yesterday. He won't receive it by tomorrow, but the thought counts. He'll get it maybe Tuesday. Prompt: This week I'm looking forward to ____________. 1. Speaking to a friend and/or family. Since no one ever answers their phone ... 2. Rain. It will clear out the smoke. Cooler weather. It may very well snow. 3. Rearranging my plants. I started today. It's part of my cleaning. 4. Getting further with WDC contests to avoid the last minute hysteria. 5. America going back to normal ... unfortunately, 'tain't happening.  For: "Blogging Circle of Friends " .Is 10/10 half of 20/20? 3.020 |
