Not quaking in your boots
anymore than usual -
you've seen too much to not know
what hopes to be a flare
in your sight, as it softens itself
for privilege, is sure sign
of having more pillows
than they'd ever admit.
The desperation, rewarded here,
why you're only half here.

Sly Lupo, the bounty hunter, gazed at his dog, Macho, sitting on a rock, sniffing the brisk breeze. The wind made a soft whistling noise as it pushed thru the bullet hole in his ear. The dog was not only his companion but was also his loyal partner. #satsplat #WIP

A #cloud bathes a #mountain in mist, hiding cave entrances where Devi statues #lure victims into the clutches of Thuggee death cult initiates.

The jack of trades gave up prototypical hunting.
Instead they wore an animal's skin to live as one that couldn't be hunted.
The allure of hunting altogether fell away, until the jack of trades was just breathing as animal one day and a laser marked their heart.

That light gave the fish hope.

They wiggled through the darkness and jagged edges formed around them.

Their eyes blinked in the moment the #lure sparked.

Surrounded by darkness again, they burned to a crisp in a hotter sea that 'angled to surpass purgatory.

He'd nutured the beast to be vicious & cruel. It had escaped & was hunting him. He ran into the castle ruins, the beast followed. Trapped, he prayed. Roaring the creature attacked, but it ran into giant_tarantulas_web & flailed like a little girl. #horrorprompt #vss365 #satsplat

There's time to marvel at the sky, as you inch onto the long ledge.
You'd gotten the rusted chain into a knot around the doorknob, and your chasers - they're storming the other side of the rooftop door. It'll give way.
That sunset ...
The world never got any better, did it?

Gale winds & snow roared across the opening of the cave. He shivered, his wet clothes clung to his body. He had matches, but nothing to burn. He marveled at the ferocity sudden storm, but he was anxious. He gazed out at a blinding white fury. Things were bleak. #Satsplat #vss365

#satsplat OuterSpace #vss365 Eloquence

Eloquence happens in between hyper-vigilance as the giant space rocks twirl over you.
Generally this means radar is working and there's room to pontificate over how space gnaws at frayed nerves.
But maybe the radar isn't working and eloquence sputters as you float, fail & dodge.

A robin reconnoitred the Central Park of Boomshraagle. News had spread that they were laying out food for hungry birds there.

They were, but in a futile attempt of cost-saving measures. Hence,...

Right, Robin, let's reconnoitre, see what we're up against

But it's dark, Bats, very dark

Bats, see in the dark

No they don't & Robins - I mean I'm not sure but I'd be surprised!
Night vision glasses?

Probably in Batmobile, Robin

But we came on Batbike!

Dandelions aureate the meadows of the marsh.

"This record is scratched", I hear a voice with a Hungarian accent.

"Terminate ... terminate", I hear another, metallic-sounding one.

THUMP

Silence follows.

As...
