Flashbulb lightning
Residual flash
Temporary
Celebrity.
Shouted interrogatory
Penetrates dark,
Manufactured
Histrionics.
Hurried exchange
Hissed advice,
Prevaricate!
Obfuscate!
Stricken beauty
Softly demurs
Fabricate?
Never!
Amendment pled
Stricken eyes
Motivation?
Vanity.
I’ve never shied away from telling my true age. Never pled the fifth. For many years I loved hearing people exclaim, “You don’t look ___!” Now, I believe all my years, like chickens, have come home to roost. And they’re having a wonderful time creating havoc with my looks.
Peace, people!

By the way, I’ve nominated you for the Most Inspiring Blog award. Don’t throw anything at me–I know you’ve been nominated a bazillion times, and you shouldn’t feel any obligation to jump through the hoops. I do find you inspiring and challenging and educational and wanted to make sure my friends knew about you.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your heartfelt nomination and generous praise. I am so thrilled to learn that I inspire you. The feeling is mutual. 🙂
You are right that I have been nominated and have already jumped the hoops but that does not diminish how much this means to me. Bests always, Sam.
