The tide is out and the moon is down

Bored Couple

Image Maker: Annemiek van der Kuil

to him,
the ticking clock,
black and ivory faced
from IKEA,
said work was slow

to her,
it said a wasted life,
he put food on the table,
and starved her in bed

she wanted
the splash of an ocean wave
and for him to build a boat
but the clock
ticked on

Random Word: They belong together

  1. Oh, my! Picture and words in total unison - which is more than can be said of the couple!

Welcome and thanks for dropping in. I'll pop by yours by and by.

This blog was inspired by First 50 words where you freewrite from a single word prompt. I use random words or images to create flash fiction in formats ranging from twitter postcards to short short stories.
