Flash Fiction #6---July 25th 2023--Tuesday · 12:00pm Jul 25th, 2023
This is very short flash fiction. Ironically, though, I call what i do flash fiction...is it? In my opinion flash fiction can be anything...but! What I am used to is a sparse few lines carefully chosen...so, this is what I give you...
I have seen flash fiction only two sentence! (They were really good! it's partially where i get my writing style from!)
Originally, the first lines was Button Mash. Was. Drowning. But, I found that really did not fit my found theme of Button Mash's, brittle bones...or, some magical equivalent? Jelly bones?
I still liked the line and knew with some attention and a new word it would be impactful. (Ah, writing your sentences out of order! sigh.)
I chose the name Button Mash because it's seems most people relate to Button Mash? So...ya...pretty thoughtful on my part...
; )
Anyway...here it is! One of my very first very short flash fiction's! Enjoy!
On oak floor’s stained everfree brown, On couch’s too soft for...his jelly…
bones.
After, his hooves touch the wet ground- she gives...
A Break.
Could it be he will never feel grass? Never to see the sky but, in framed, caged snippet’s?
Button Mash. Was. Shattering.
And, he didn’t know what to do…
For those curious it took me seventeen or so minutes to write this...mostly cause I keep thinking about that first line I was talking about. I eventually realized I want to write impactful fiction and that does not always mean writing more...after all you should feel what your writing so, you know what your writing is swell. (At least in my case.)
Cheer's! Have a good day!
