55 - hunting of desires





wild is the moody sky as temperamental winds fly into the great unknown looking for old sins. in the eyes a glint that says “do not mess with me. i am out to catch the tail of pleasures desperately” ...a hunger you can fill alone through the fearless hunting of desires to which you’re prone.






every friday, compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less. if you want to join in the fun and games and give it a try...post your story and report to the boss G-Man

Oooo. That's me, alright. Constantly seeking out all that pleasure and desire and stuff.

You know me too well.

dustinthesky said...

Loved the start!

greekwitch said...

Wildly beautiful!

TechnoBabe said...

If you're looking for old sins they must not be that old or that forgotten or that finished. Huh.

Mark said...

Very well done!

lakeviewer said...

"...temperamental winds fly...looking for old sins."

This is memorable, hauntingly beautiful.

Wait, there is more:
"..a hunger you can fill...through the fearless hunting of desires..."

Caio Fernandes said...

wolfie185 said...

Cool Shadow, bad temptations be damned I am going to catch the desires.
Love the image also, Nicholson in the The Shining is one of scarest villians of all time.

Secretia said...

I am going outside to look at the "moody sky" in a minute. Thanks for reminding me it is there, Shadow. I owe you.

Brian Miller said...

love the line about catching the tail of pleasures...old sins come back to haunt dont they...

enchantedoak said...

Wonderful 55! Loved the picture and the mood. You wondered if my 55 about being pregnant with possibilities really happened: Yes it did.
Happy hunting!

Tom Bailey said...

I was thinking "The shinning" desires.

Anonymous said...

I like shadows...

Tall Kay said...

Wow Shadow...you nailed the picture! Very haunting and daunting 55 so close to Hallows Eve! I don't need to go looking for old sins...they seem to find me on their own :o)

Ofira Sephiroth said...

I could quote every single word to say how much I love this and how much I love that, for all of them are just EXCELLENT.

Cat said...

Exactly! and in 55!

Nevine said...

That was very cool and laid back... and almost like poetry when read aloud. I like that!

Sylvia said...

You have a special gift to reach the unknown and translate it in words. Brilliant.

Prayer Girl said...

I'm trying to stay out of the temperamental winds that are flying around me - stay out of any wild moods.

Always enjoy your 55s.

Calli said...

Wonderful work! One of these days I will give 55 a try! That is if your boss man will let me ;) ...

Have a great and wild weekend Shadow~

"wild is the moody sky as temperamental winds fly..." - You have a remarkable talent to play with words, dear friend.

Monkey Man said...

"fearless hunting of desires..." that describes me as I search through all of the 55's posted this week. You spin a great tale. My 55 is also up.

Steve E. said...

Dear God, let me sin just for a while longer...and please don't let me die before I'm done. I still have places to go, You know! Amen."

Good, Shadow.
PEACE!

Go, Shads, go. Refuse to be denied. ;-)

If I were walking down the street and suddenly saw that painting of "Heeeeeere's Johnny" glaring down at me, I think I might faint.

Dagrun said...

How cool is that!

the walking man said...

Hunting your desires is good. Eating them is satiating. I have been told in the days before pony tail and beard that I looked like Jack in that photograph.

"Heeerrreeeee's Johnny"

Gloria said...

That is some fabulous photo!!! Thanks for commenting on my blog. Hope you enjoyed your visit!!

Hootin' Anni said...

excellent!! and excellent graphic to depict your thoughts and writing.

Just Be Real said...

Man,that was good!!! And to have Jack Nicolson come out and catch me is just as real.

Secretia said...

I do love your work.

Felicitas said...

Love it! Moody, strong, & dangerous.

Mama Zen said...

Wow, Shadow, that is intense!

Rikkij said...

Shadow-I first looked at the image and then read and it came to me "the moody eye" instead of sky. (thanks a bunch, Jack)
I'm wondering how this hunt will feel in the morning and who really is the hunted. Great 55!~rick

Inky said...

Oh my sweet shadow you make me want to be so delightfully sinful Naughty all the way.. so pleasureful to read and feel

TheChicGeek said...

Oooooooh, Shadow! Awesome! I love this! Way cool!!!!!

So good to be back to read your words! I love getting my daily dose of Shadow! Makes life soooooooooo much better :D

Love and Hugs to You, Shadow!
Happy Sunday!

findingmywingsinlife said...

there are some old sins better left alone, some desires better left to their own demise because trying to catch the tail of pleasures could mean losing your own ass (hehehe) I'm sure you know what I mean. I did like this one very much though...

Jasmine said...

I like your words. Do you do much creative writing, or mostly poetry? I love both :)

Indigo said...

I always love your 55's.

"Wild as the moody sky," that phrase is an apt description for today. It teases my brain. (Hugs)Indigo
