Marquee neon spotlights the startled expression of someone who once pretended to love me. My hand reaches deep into my empty coat pocket and it’s then I realize: I’ve already tossed our past away.

A 33 word Trifecta-like writing challenge for myself and for writer Tom MacInnes. Please pop over to Tom’s new blog to read his response.
Lovely! You do that ‘punch of emotion’ so well, Jo!
You are always so good at inferring so many layers of meaning and back story within so very few words. You are a micro Master!
Good for you to have that done and over with. Love the challenge of the 33 word. I was so sad when that blog closed.
Thank you, Grace, for having a read of this piece. Yes, I really miss Trifecta as it was a great way to connect with other writers.
