Q: Are we looking for messages?
A: No. I'd probably settle for witty observations.

Briefly?
O.K.
So...learned skills on my first
3-5 in nasty Clink Hotel
up North.
Was probably busiest
when stoneheads
took over operations
down south.
Word got round.
Useful skills mine.
Well; used to be.
Could always,
and I mean always,
keep my mouth shut
and get job done.
And when I's outside?
I got protected.
Which was useful.
And next time
I got banged up
I could soon pick up
where I left off.
Best message man and tillman
there was.
Period.
Those days
long over now though.
That enough for you?

Hats.
Q: I understand objections to order, but are you questioning authority or society?
A: Sitting a bit on the fence here, I guess I'd rather leave that up to the reader.
Are my objections so clear cut? I'm not sure really.
I don't feel uncomfortable being objectionable to those who should know, and do, better! It's just my idea of being just and fair.

Writing with your ears. [ Part 2 ]
Writing with your ears [ Part 2 ]
I sat opposite
a very elderly couple.
The gentleman
was recalling
story after story
to a rather
mystified lady.
He told her
about his father,
and his attitude
to work
following WW1.
He was,
I have to say,
a very good
storyteller.

30 years ago
in Brixton, London
I had a conversation
in a pub,
with a lady
who had been
born in a brothel
in France
during WW1
and was still wearing
her mother's fur coat
that very evening.
40 years ago
I had a drink,
in a pub,
with a father and son.
The father
had been a boy soldier
in the Boer war
in 1900.
As a writer
of micro flash fiction
I am sensing,
ever so slightly,
a shift
in source material!

Q: Beginnings, middles endings?
A: Not necessarily. Not for me. Well not all the time.
There you go, a beginning, a middle and an ending!
I know what you're saying. Do you need that comfort zone when you read a short fiction?
No; me too.
Well there you go then.
A good story ends up the way it is, not the way you're told it should.

Jealous Feet
Like me you might have seen it in the papers some time. It wasn't big news for everyone, although it clearly was for some.
It was all about always being seen in 'interesting' shoes and why this was important. Of course this in itself wasn't news. But it did leak to an outbreak of jealous feet and we know now what that ends up leading too!
So, in keeping up with modern practices, to be seen as fair and just, a lot of people started to become followers of fashion and those with jealous feet were shunted outside with the smokers.
