Each week, I post three words. You write something using the words.

This week's words:

Drab; Pulsate; Tendril.

Taxidermy found on Cool Things

A Fish Out Of Water

Drab means without hue
and more, exhausted to boot.
And yes, that's the thing
besetting me, that
I've become that guy, bled out,
ash gray pallor though
I pulsate still, shade
of some living thing rustling
just outside the back
door, a wan tendril
of my grasp seeking what's left
of what I once was.

I hope the parody in this comes through. Things aren't really that bad. I know I am not the only one. I wonder why it is so much easier to write the dark side. The only thing left to do is stick the fish head on the squirrel's body and call it a day. A hug and a kiss to all the girls. You guys - I am not leaving you out, but I don't kiss guys usually. I do hug my friends though. I hope all you people are my friends. I am placing all of it in God's lap where it belongs.

  2. sometimes we feel invisible and life has past us by but maybe we are just where we are suppose to be and others lives are as exciting as they appear.

  4. Regret nothing and continue to look forward to something. Otherwise you you will become a Squirrish or a Bushy tailed fish...good for nothing.

The chicken crossed the road. That's poultry in motion.
