I wonder if he knows?
Sitting cross legged, divorced from reality, a sanctuary-brandy filled bubble.
Stinky cigar smoke making eyes stream.
A little internal giggle; feeling his eyes on my manicured feet, tracing the smooth aerobicised contours of my finely tuned instrument.
I wonder if he knows?
I cost more than his winnings.
Today it’s one shoot Sunday over at One Stop Poetryone stop poetry. Today the photo prompt by Mike Roemer Mike Roemer.

Funny! And clever! I love this! Thanks!
Thanks Ami, yours was great to thanks for the visit x
Ha! You set this microfiction piece up wonderfully. Could imagine an internal monologue. Have you tried a 55 before? Awesome work in 55 words! Great final line too.
I’ve done one or two before, not many, the art like haiku is what you leave to the imagination 🙂 thanks Adam great photo again!
I’m sure she will cost him more than money. She has a chin that would cut ice. I like how you got into her mindset.
I love that- a chi’n that can cut ice? He hee! Mines a bit pointy too… Must watch for that!
I cost more than your winnings – hell yeah!
Ha! Good one. Nice take on the prompt!
nice take, Shan…I was thinking all kinds of things…wondering if he knows….what, what, what doesn’t he know?
My guess is he doesn’t know – but he’s going to find out. And the cost is more than money. Really like this.
Another line of thought was that she was looking for her next *free ride* so to speak! Thanks Glynn x
Love the depth you took this to, in her mindset, oh, but if only he really knew.
yea, I couldn’t have written that…wish I had, but I couldn’t…thanks for stopping by
Peace, hp
Delightful I think he Knows the Secrets.
Beautiful and evocative, and straight to the point. I love that sanctuary-brandy bit, and the offhand reference to her instrument. Makes the piece sing with disillusion.
I doubt he knows anything, lol. But you’ll be sweet and fill in the blanks, after a little judicious editing, I’m sure. 😉
well, i’m shocked.
*rolleyes*
Love it. Powerful and take charge. Amazing job!
you’re right, Shan, we did write about the same woman ~ but yours is MUCH better than mine.
I don’t know which line is better:
“a sanctuary-brandy filled bubble.” or
“I cost more than his winnings.”
great one shoot, sweetheart. hope you have a great week. ❤
i think he knows…but, it looks like he has card up his sleeve.
Perfect! Women must definitely make it public they are expensive, not only for their looks but also their hearts and minds. =)))
Kiss you! =*
