55Flash Fiction Friday

If I was a hobo
I'd sneak into your yard
Steal your fresh hot pie
Cooling on the sill
I know you'd think me naughty
As I ran, pie in my hand
Your little dog would chase me
But he would do no harm
We all know it's a little game
You baked this pie for me
I know because
You needed two but baked three!

I just cannot figure out how to eliminate 11 more words, so today you get 66 words. It's ok, rebellion is allowed around here!

The most loveliest G~man will be the official host of 55Flash Fiction Friday next week as I will be in Seattle with this character being forced up into the Needle! I'll see you if I make it back.

Oh such memories that brings back. We had a neighbor that dressed up as a hobo once for Halloween. He made a pretty convincing one two. I do believe he went around to a few homes and even made like he was pilfering a pie.

Anyway I have been scanning my parents slides and I knew we had a picture of him. I went a searching, scanned it in, shrunk it to more easily email it and ... :( you don't have an email listed.

Susie, if I can send those two pictures to you somewhere could you please let me know at barman6vw@yahoo.com. It is nothing special but it jut so came to mind when reading your wonderful 55. Very nice Susie. And thank you for the wonderful trip down memory lane.

Hmmm...isn't a 66 Flash Fiction prophetic of something?

So, you should rent a motorcycle while in Seattle if weather is nice. You & Logo could go cruisin' all around.

While you are in Seattle, I'll be in Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai! Have a great time!

G-Man said...
