Friday Flash 55.....



Flailing about like a spastic marionette,
she was powerless under the vice-like grip clutching her throut.
Nostrils flaring... Eyes of unbridled rage!
Cheap whiskey and FEAR were the only smells present!
"Why me"...She thought
(fading)
"Oh God".....She knew him!!!!!!!
Yesterday...
Late for work...
Ran over neighbors dog...
Didn't stop...
(fade to black)



Happy Halloween Everybody!!!
If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55...
Please come tell The G-Man!
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment, haunt you, Then BOOK!!
So from the most eerie host from coast to coast....
Have a safe and Fun-Filled Week-End...
BOO!!!!!

    Nikki, sprawled across the the table, called out the shot, "eight ball, corner pocket." You couldn't help but notice her with those nice smooth legs covered in fish net nylons. Her nicely rounded tush was posed over the railing with that come hither look. She liked her suds with a few games, especially on Sundays.

    Hope this don't offend any of the women who follow this blog. It's just a story I thought of and made it a Friday Flash 55.
