Friday Flash 55.....



What lies beyond the boundaries of your vision?
Is it reality, or a dream?
Is it wrong to long for Silence?
Silence so profound thats it's almost....Ghastly!
I want to be alone, but the Fish-Bowl won't allow it.
A vortex of unanswered morose curiosity fuels the lethargy.
The girl, with those far away eyes.....



Garbo wasn't/isn't the only one afflicted with that condition!!!
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 lethargic host from coast to coast
Have a Kick Ass Week-End...

    What a coincidence; I have faraway eyes and long for silence too...
    But that's because I've been sick in bed with a migraine today.

    Fortunately, I was able to find some willing helpers to put up a Friday 55 post...

    It's right here. :)
    Try not to judge them too harshly.

    What's the opposite of cross eyed? Maybe that's all it was.

    far away eyes...maybe thinking..seems a strange concept these days as no one does it.

    :) Love this! I could look into her eyes forever. Interesting life she led....

    I just walked in the door and have had a busy week. I plan on playing with 55 words tomorrow night, so I will probably be bringing up the tail end of this week's talent.

    I never blamed her for refusing to live in the fishbowl. Silence is lovely.

    You selected the best image of Garbo I've ever seen and wrote a 55 totally worthy of it. Really, I am quite touched by it. You deserve a great weekend for giving us this one, G!

    We all need some peace and quiet, and those in the limelight must need it most of all.

    I love your sensitive 55, Galen, and thanks for the hugs. Sorry to miss out two weeks in a row.

    My head hurts, my feet stink, and I don’t love Jesus. And, this has nothing to do with hang-ups or hangovers and everything to do with an end of summer cold. A sneezy, stuffed-up, achy head, runny nose, let me die kind of cold and that, my friend, is why my Friday 55 submission sucks.

    Hey Everybody!!!!
    I'm all caught up at this point.
    I'll be going fishing 'Up North" this week-end with my son, and I'll be incommunicado till Sunday!
    Any late stragglers will be dealt with on Sunday.

    She's so beautiful! Moon brows. And she had (as her real last name) the same last name as me. Odd there's no resemblance!!!!!!

    Here's mine - late so sorry - my life very complex right now.
