I am attempting the short and sweet Trifecta weekend challenge today: 33 words including ring, water and stage. Click on the link below to read other entries or have a go yourself. Super Trouper
She doesn’t want this life, but this is her stage. She
breathes. Double somersaults, through rings of fire. Carlos catches her before
they dive into the invisible water. Cue applause.
I admire her, first for the skill of what she can do-and then for having the guts to do what she wants, and quit.
ReplyDeleteExcellent 33 words!!
Thanks Valerie. I think I was inspired by a recent viewing of a Cirque du Soleil film!
DeleteHappy writing,
Laura
Wow ... such nice powerful story in so few words ... I love how you showed the apathy !
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she made her own decisions and didn't let others make them for her anymore.
ReplyDeleteMe too. Sometimes you have to make a jump, right?
DeleteAh, but what a last performance. I'm sure it was a stunning as her sudden departure. Thank you for linking up!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the read! Pleasure to link up with you guys. Love how we all have the same words, but they take people in such different directions!
DeleteIf I had the skills to do that, I couldn't imagine quitting - very courageous!
ReplyDeleteTotally true, Jo-Anne. Thanks for stopping by!
