Metastasi

Me, constant secret companion

Ever growing, spreading within

Taking over like a black plague

Adhering to your soft cells

Seeping through all organs

Ticking bomb like

Always there

Shading

In.

Intent on tenderising

The meat she bashed the life out of it.

What a waste of good steak.

It’s an easy mistake to make.

Indents you don’t need to make

Just heat the oil in the pan

Then for four minutes each side.

Fry at high heat

Perfect to eat.

Steak four minutes each side

Then then ten minutes rested.

Perfect taste invested.

If you don’t believe me check the internet.

Couch.

He had been in the house for as long as anyone could remember. Witnessed three proposals, many a stolen moments of lust, one birth, two deaths numerous arguments and one nasty case of a fist fight.

Yes you could say he was part of the furniture. He was at home in every room and comfortable with each new generation. So it was rather a shock to overhear them speaking of him in the past tense. He’d done well, had a good run, but now he had outlived his use , past his best. However nicely it was couched he was unsettled by this line of talk.

To his utter shock he found himself out in the garden under the apple tree by the dustbins. It wasn’t too bad it was Summer and the cat and the dog were happy to join him in the shade.

It was the third day that he’d been out there when the young couple came over to talk to him they spoke in glowing terms about him. Then they went up to the house and spoke in enthusiastic terms to his latest couple who seemed very happy to meet the young couple.

Later that day he was heaved up into a red van and driven a short distance to the shops. He spent the night in the van…not happy in the dark not even a dog or cat for company.

In the morning he was move into a bright and busy place with coffee tables, music , wooden floors and lots of people.

“I love him” , he heard the young woman say to her partner “the perfect center piece for our retro café, yup the perfect couch.”

Once again he was in the thick of it part of bustling café / bar life.

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS August 24/19

Before him stood another disaster.

Between you and me I believe that he

Really enjoys being stressed out.

Above the sun shines bright

Below rain falls down

On his sad head

Misery

Loves him

So.

Cover me with snow when I die

Unclip my wings, I have need to fly.

Co-ordinate my empty shell

Please send me skyward not down to hell.

Covertly remember the things I did

Completely open up your eyes

To deeds I never hid.

Cover me with snow when I die

Release my coloured soul

Let me fly.

“Where on earth did that come from? ” Tom stood and stared at the huge lorry that was in the middle of the front lawn. He was shocked rigid at the sight of the huge tanker sitting there.

As he stood there he saw the driver get out of the cab looking very shaken and start to walk towards the tanker sized hole in Toms hedge.

“Hey” shouted Tom “Where do you think you are going?” The guy turned around and answered “Err, not sure , I suppose nowhere?”

Its Stream of Consciousness Saturday and Lindaghill said:Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “astronomical.” Use it any way you like. Have fun!

Astronomical

Infinity, black, peppered with silver stars.

The unknown beyond bounds

The heavens an open universe

Watched by us tiny specs below

Man has spent millennia reaching out

It is too vast for us to understand

The celestial, beauty and mystery hand in hand.

Astronomical.

Linda G Hill said : “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “clean/dirty.” Use one, use both, use ’em any way you like. Enjoy!”

Clean/Dirty Nonet.

Clean is the opposite of dirty

A tiny scratch on my finger.

I made sure I cleaned the cut

After six days dirt that

Entered my blood.

The poison

Spread, ran

Wild.

And it got much worse.💜 #SoCs.

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS July 20/19 Frame.

Freeze the frame stop time

This one second is all mine

The beauty of sheer joy

Living life through the zoom lense

Live life frame by frame

Time caught in a frame

Some are gone yet some remain

Lifes a picture frame
