50 Word Fiction Friday Vol. VI

Hello and welcome to VI. This week, I spent some time in class, learning more about color science and technology. And so this week’s theme is color. Pretty broad, you can use it anyway you like, just name a color somewhere, and you’ve met the challenge. Of course, you are welcome to get more creative.

Always a bridesmaid.

There should be some kind of community to this weed. There is a heritage to this bullshit, apparently. I need a VW van, and some shaggy-doo type facial hair. That will never do, I have a cat not a dog, and I donít drive, and I shaveÖ. Fuck, this will never do.

She sleeps with me, and sits on my monitor with her eyes looking back at me. The same look, but I love her for it. Has anyone seen the iguana? Never suffer those that would rather refuse to suffer you first!

  5. Two rocks sat patiently at the base of a blue-green glacier.
    The left rock whispered, “Did you see that?”
    The right rock answered, “See what?”
    The left rock, now frightened, “That glacier moved!”
    The right rock sneared, “Yah, Riiiight!”
    The left rock, sighed. “I have a bad feeling about this…”

  6. After the softball struck her in the temple, she was able to taste colors. Simply licking an object would tell her, in exacting detail, the hue, saturation and intensity.
