Thank
you to Grandma’s Goulash for hosting Succinctly Yours! The idea of this meme is
to use the picture in order to paint a small story of 140 words or 140
characters or fewer. The bonus word this week was “macabre.”
When Helena invited her macabre friend Yvette over to help her with the hanging, she didn’t have any idea Yvette had hoped to help with an altogether different kind. 136
Yvette
was surprised macabre Helena liked her idea of a Buns of Steel calendar. Until
she saw the skeletons and realized Helena had thought she’d said “Bones of
Steel.” 140
Helena
had a wicked and macabre sense of humor, hanging an x-ray of Yvette’s gallstones on the wall as art. Yvette was galled all over again. 116
It is truly a great cosmic paradox that one of the best
teachers in all of life turns out to be death….While someone could tell you
that you are not your body, death shows you…death instantly makes us all the
same. ~Michael A. Singer, The Untethered
Soul
Tammy you have the knack for these. I am laughing out loud at that last one.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa! The word "macabre" did the twisting. I can't be blamed! ;)

ReplyDeleteThanks, Sioux!
DeleteGotta go with the gallstones! And they didn't even warrant a frame.
ReplyDeleteLol. I was sort of hoping they'd get the big, gold frame.
DeleteWickedly funny--and a bit macabre.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Donna!
DeleteI love the first one best! But they are all great!
