Crazy


There is something in madness we are drawn to. It offers a freedom. It offers a creativity that might otherwise be forbidden; letting us go and letting us be. Be whatever glorious or painful creatures we dream. It is unique. It lets us soar or sink and sometimes never surface. Sometimes that is good enough.

Foiled Again


Winnie, the Wicked Winter Witch, detested Santa and Christmas. She dreamed up a scheme to squelch the hated holiday forever. Sneaking stealthily into the stables at midnight, she laced the reindeer meal with "Final Rest" pellets. She was quiet as nothing was nastier than a wakened, angry reindeer.

Unfortunately, Winnie was unaware of Rudolph's insomnia...

Breaking and Entering




He crept stealthily from window to window. Getting into the secure house was not going to be easy. The sound of nearby sirens stopped him. He waited for their silence. Shaking his head, he sighed.

Might just as well use the chimney again this year. Laying his finger beside his nose and giving a nod...

Living Nightmare



Voices all around but no-one speaks to me.

Music blasts from nowhere and then wafts into space.

Pills forced in my mouth, and I do not know why.

My house is gone. My dog is gone. My books are gone.

I wonder where I am.

I cannot walk and only stand to fall.

Confusion.

Alzheimers.

Be sure to visit Galen at G-Man, Mr. Know It All, and let him know if you have written a Friday Flash 55 story that you would like to share. Have a productive weekend. Take care of your parents and be forgiving. D
