Thursday Doors Writing Challenge: Morgarna: Part 2.

TDWC 2024 Badge

Morgarna opened her eyes slowly trying not to move too quickly. The smell and slim around her alerted her to the fact she was in a dumpster!
By the feel of her body and her limbs she’d not been there long. Everything hurt… So maybe ten, twenty minutes…things were already knitting back together. This was the worst part of being immortal, bonemending.

Slowly Morgarna pushed the lid up and heaved herself out in to the alley. Taking stock : limbs in correct positions…back okay still mending from a break she twisted her head back round forward and heard her neck click into place . Those bastards worked a real number on me. They actually killed me for those packages, she thought to herself. Checking her feet were pointing in the right direction and her Doc Martens were intact she walked to wards the corner. As she past a drunk sitting in a doorway he looked at Morgarna and offered her a couple of crumpled dollar bills saying,”Looks like your need is greater than mine girlie”
Fighting back the urge to thump him Morgarna swallowed her pride and politely declined the kind offer.
What she did do was to sit down next him and fish out a decent single malt and her cigarettes. She took a large slug of whisky and offered the bottle to the guy. Then as she lit her cigarette she offered him one to, “Never touch the things girlie they’re bad for your health” suppressing another urge to floor him she took her mobile out and checked it.
The package was still in the area as was who ever had , or so they must think , killed her and dumped her in the rubbish.
The old guy next to her said ” you’ve not been on the streets long have you, you stink really bad”
That was it Morgarna’s patience was getting thin….she was hungry, sore and smelly . She raised her hand then just managed to stop herself from knocking the guy into next week. Something stopped her ….was it his eyes or the fact he’d told her he didn’t smoke and it was bad for her not him?
She lowered her hand and punched him in the crown jewels!
“Merlin you shit you !” …she screamed getting ready to put the boot in .
“Babes, that hurt” Merlin squeaked in a voice two optives higher than normal.
“Go on then ” Morgarna snapped grabbing the single malt back off of him and drinking it all!
“Right ” Merlin began his voice almost back to normal, ” I saw on the *T.A.S.C. Screen that the guy driving the Hummer ran you down and dragged you up the road until your body got stuck between him and the wall. He then reversed making a real mess of you before getting out and dumping you in the bin….well I thought then, I had finished that gorgeous curry Gail had cooked I best come and help you”
Morgarna’s eyes went totally black at the mention of Gail’s curry. Drawing herself up to twice her size she flew at Merlin who ducked just before she grabbed him, she smashed into the wall , sliding down leaving a bloody trail.
“Babes focus” Merlin said we need to save our energy …we still need to retrieve that package “
Shaking herself off Morgarna lit another cigarette and said…”Okay what’s the f###ing plan.”

As they rounded the corner no one took any notice of the homeless couple…. Mind you most noticed the smell coming from the female of the pair.

“There’s the green door you had on the screen and yes there is the location blip showing up inside the door.” Morgarna said . “Yes ” replied Merlin and if you want any more proof there is the Hummer with a Morgarna sized dent in it!”

They climb the steps and Merlin opened the door with his mind. They stepped into a long dark hallway……….. To be continued.

Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Back in 2010 I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust. I will of been married 53yrs this comming year. I have found different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and hopefully in to light. My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and be as strong as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well. I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

  1. Aha, Willow, I must’ve missed out on Part one, …so I’ve scrolled back and now I’m caught up, …Sheer Magic, …and I want that green door, it’s absolutely lovely, & looks like a Time Portal, don’t tell me where it is, …or I’d be trying to magic it away,…💫💙💜💫

    1. So glad you liked it. I never know what’s happening next because I write it stream of consciousness. I don’t know where the door is from but it’s gorgeous isn’t it 💜💜💜💜

  2. How can you be so mean? TO BE CONTINUED?! You don’t need to clean your house or cook dinner, or even shower and brush your teeth, just write dammit! 😂🤣

  3. Good doors. Love the melting one.

    Personal request: Please change your header. It takes me a minute of oohing and ahhing over that gorgeous darling dog to scroll on down the page.

    OK–further note–never mind. Leave it. I love seeing your pup.

    1. That’s our Ruby and she died two years ago she was a guide dog and we took her for her free exercise and looked after her while her blind person was on holiday. Then she retired at 7yrs old and came to live with us for her retirement. We really still miss her so much 💜💜💜

  4. You were certainly inspired, Willow. Checking to see that her feet were pointed in the right direction was a terrific touch. 🙂 The dumpster created a vivid mental image.

    I love this slim green door too. Hugs.

Heartland Echoes

Welcome to my “Heartland Echoes,” where I aim to share my poems with the world, along with my survival story and autobiography of childhood abuse, motivational quotes, and much more. Through my words, I hope to inspire others to share their own stories and experiences. Each poem is a piece of my heart and soul, along with a story of a traumatic past, crafted with inspiration, Hope, faith, love and passion. I believe that by sharing our art and emotions, I’ll be able to connect with others on a deeper level and create a sense of community.
