| The Importance of Planning The tree gave very little protection against the rain. Standing right next to the trunk, I was less conspicuous but just as soaked as the small group of mourners by the grave. I watched as the coffin was lowered with handfuls of sodden earth to follow. There is something depressing about a funeral in the rain. It may be appropriate in that it sets the mood, but it still amounts to adding insult to injury. Is it not enough to lose a loved one? I promised myself that next time I would check the weather forecast before selecting a victim. Word count: 100 For Microscopic Stories and The Bradbury |
| Responsibility I told you that I can’t stand heights, that my will faints when on the edge, and my body longs to fling itself into the abyss. You never listen, do you, and you didn’t this time either. And still you push me right to the highest point, where the awareness of the void at my feet calls to me whether my eyes are open or not. “Don’t look down,” you say, as though that makes a difference. So it’s no wonder that I am seized by vertigo and, in clutching at your support, I sent you spinning to your death. Word count: 100 For The Bradbury 2026, Week 2 |
