Written for Friday Fictioneers where Rochelle asks us to
get creative in 100 words or less. Making every word count
and using Dale’s photo below as inspiration, here is my flash.

Since we was kids it was just me and Roxie. Nobody wanted us but we didn’t care.Ā  We was crazy in love, wild about each other. We didn’t need nobody stickin’ their noses in our beeswax.

Long as we was together, nothin’ else much mattered, y’know?

We got a gig flippin’ flapjacks, a tin roof over our heads, a bed, and a hi-fi for spinnin’ tunes.

We do our jobs each day, make mad love every night, and dance in the glittery moonlight.

We’re happy and there’s no hidin’ the signs. The whole shack shimmies.

That’s more than most folks got.
