Fall Out

Neville

Fall Out

 

… She had personality, passion and purpose

But having dropped yet another stitch …

 

… She looked up from her shawl and said

Fuck it, now I’m going to drop them all …

    Hhmmm - - Intriguing again mon ami - and passionate indeed when dropped stitches bring a complete end to work satisfaction - - a satirically less serious expletive could have saved the first drop I do agree............

    • Neville



      the fact that she sat lower was probably a blessing in hindsight ........ ta and muchly too dear Fay ...

      Ahh, sounds like someone's having fun there - or about to! Swoon! I knew it would be too much for me. lol

        .............. thank you Orchidee am glad I could count on your inadvertent discretion ... swooning comes in handy some times .. particularly when you need a good alibi ...

        • orchidee

          I DID meet that lass - that was the trouble! lol.

        • Doggerel Dave

          Oh leave her be, will ya - she sounds like a feisty woman who knew her own mind and above all when to cut her losses....

          • Neville



            ........................................................ that she did .. and always .......... cheers Dave 🙂

            Fed up with her station of abstenance she decided to let it roll.

              Good write, Neville. It never leaves, just rambles around the ghetto of your mind.

                If she were knitting, then dropping a stitch is common, knit and purl, but if she’s bare underneath the knitted shawl, then it would be purr lol

                  ... my word, you have such a way with words RB but even better than that ... tis good to see you here ..

                  as ever, quick with the wit and far too deep
                  when deciphering that cancerous - threat
                  to humanity's essential requirement, for survival
                  see, taken as a solitary case - study, this write - be a fun read
                  but when you consider
                  an entire generation has now been convinced
                  they need not pick-out that thread - to begin with
                  or lift a needle: only - to struggle with
                  only then do we readers, get a glimpse
                  at just how far-reaching and true
                  your words read...
                  clever and unerringly acute, yet for me: a truly foreboding read
                  a brilliant shorty, my friend!
                  would take me a few pages trying to unfurl its layers
                  and there-in exists the majesty, within our beloved poetry
