Friday Flash 55.....




The crime appeared random.
She bled out with barely a whimper.
That cheating bitch deserved it!
His perfection made him smile.
No cell phone, no surveillance, no witness.
The bloody evidence was burried miles away.
But SUDDENLY...Panic engulfed him as he glanced toward his wrist, and the pale outline of his missing Timex!!

.

If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55, please come tell The G-Man. I will visit, read, enjoy, comment, Then BOOK!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast...
Have a Great Week-End!
Peace...!!!

    Very good 55 this week. There is no such thing as a perfect crime. I have tried. LOL
    Mine is up. No poignant or pathos this week.

    Oops. Now whatcha gonna do genius?

    Kinda gruesome there G. The "accidental suicide" in the garage was a lot less messy.

    You haven't taken out any large insurance policies lately have you?

    You're getting ready to try your hand at writing murder mysteries, aren't you? That's pretty darn good in only 55 words.:)

    I guess that means that the ticking he hears is simply the beating of her tell-tale heart.

    My 55 is up.
