Flash 55 - Devotion

~ click images to make biggerer ~





Have you ever noticed that people who are staunchly individualistic in their personal beliefs and behaviors insist that others conform?
 
When they refer to freedom of thought, words and actions, what they really mean is “as long as you think and do as me.”
 
Anyone different is deemed evil and a votary of the devil.  


Write a story in exactly 55 words.


The G-Man "Mr. Know-It-All" is our intrepid host. 
Visit him and give him a tickle.
 
 
Merry Meet and Blessed Be

Patriotic Bag


                                                             fire engine rucksack 
                                                             proudly hailed on her back
                                                             with true blue genes
                                                             lily white sports socks
                                                             broad stripes & bright
                                                             stars tote bag
                                                             in the crook of each arm
                                                             eyes blinkered
                                                             by book pages
                                                             as she gallantly streams
                                                             down the gutter in the road
                                                             oh say can you see
                                                             the gleaming American
                                                             dream


Merry Meet & Blessed Be

Labor Day

wake up 
the day is over

there’s  
demands, wants
favors, needs
pleases, haves
theirs

one blink
between a sigh
 

Merry Meet & Blessed Be!
