The challenge set on Friday was to complete the following story in only 33 words... The phone rang at 4am.
The phone rang at 4am.
A shrill, repetitive, definitive trial.
Freedom, held, suspended on a thread; love on a whisper. I witnessed indecision, comprehended inner conflict; pleaded, silently, for clemency.
Three words, hope soared unencumbered.
“I lost her.”

ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of a ringing phone being a repetitive trial. There's so many ways to use this. Very cool concept.
ReplyDeleteCame from the Trifextra linkup.
The idea of "I lost her" freeing up hope suggests a clandestine relationship that may suddenly become legitimate.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Especially how my stomach dropped at the "I lost her" until I got to "soared". Nice.
