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
"to catch the tail of pleasures"
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.....I like that...sounds rather cosmic, eh???
oh yeh.....and the one before this'n Shadow........beootiful...the words and cadence of a chant...right on!!
ReplyDeleteYou have an amazing gift of word!
ReplyDeleteBlessings and prayers, andrea
PS: I have a prayer request on arise 2 write for my brother in law.
Oooo. That's me, alright. Constantly seeking out all that pleasure and desire and stuff.
ReplyDeleteYou know me too well.
Loved the start!
ReplyDeleteWildly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIf you're looking for old sins they must not be that old or that forgotten or that finished. Huh.
ReplyDeleteVery well done!
ReplyDelete"...temperamental winds fly...looking for old sins."
ReplyDeleteThis is memorable, hauntingly beautiful.
Wait, there is more:
"..a hunger you can fill...through the fearless hunting of desires..."
Lovely
ReplyDeletethis is alread done .
ReplyDeleteCool Shadow, bad temptations be damned I am going to catch the desires.
ReplyDeleteLove the image also, Nicholson in the The Shining is one of scarest villians of all time.
I am going outside to look at the "moody sky" in a minute. Thanks for reminding me it is there, Shadow. I owe you.

I think I have had some of those nights long ago..."to catch the tail of pleasures" Great 55! :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful haunting words combined with a great image. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYou can find my 55 here.
Have a great weekend,
Chef Kar
love the line about catching the tail of pleasures...old sins come back to haunt dont they...
ReplyDeleteWonderful 55! Loved the picture and the mood. You wondered if my 55 about being pregnant with possibilities really happened: Yes it did.
ReplyDeleteHappy hunting!
Chris
I was thinking "The shinning" desires.
ReplyDeleteI like shadows...
ReplyDeleteWow 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)
ReplyDeleteVery well written.
ReplyDeleteNice with "catch the tail of pleasures desperately".
ReplyDeleteMarvelous My Dear....
ReplyDeleteSimply Marvelous!!
Have a Stellar Week-End...G
beautifully written 55!!
ReplyDeletewonderful 55 -- the pic is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteExactly! and in 55!
ReplyDeleteThat was very cool and laid back... and almost like poetry when read aloud. I like that!
ReplyDeleteYou have a special gift to reach the unknown and translate it in words. Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to stay out of the temperamental winds that are flying around me - stay out of any wild moods.
ReplyDeleteAlways enjoy your 55s.
PG
Wonderful work! One of these days I will give 55 a try! That is if your boss man will let me ;) ...
ReplyDeleteHave 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.
ReplyDelete"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.
ReplyDeleteDear 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."
ReplyDeleteGood, Shadow.
PEACE!
Go, Shads, go. Refuse to be denied. ;-)
ReplyDeletejack is jack... but your words run true, as always...
ReplyDeleteIf I were walking down the street and suddenly saw that painting of "Heeeeeere's Johnny" glaring down at me, I think I might faint.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that!
ReplyDeleteHunting 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.
ReplyDelete"Heeerrreeeee's Johnny"
That is some fabulous photo!!! Thanks for commenting on my blog. Hope you enjoyed your visit!!
ReplyDeleteexcellent!! and excellent graphic to depict your thoughts and writing.
ReplyDeleteMan,that was good!!! And to have Jack Nicolson come out and catch me is just as real.
ReplyDeleteI do love your work.
ReplyDeleteSecretia
Love it! Moody, strong, & dangerous.
ReplyDeleteWow, Shadow, that is intense!
ReplyDeleteShadow-I first looked at the image and then read and it came to me "the moody eye" instead of sky. (thanks a bunch, Jack)
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering how this hunt will feel in the morning and who really is the hunted. Great 55!~rick
Oh my sweet shadow you make me want to be so delightfully sinful Naughty all the way.. so pleasureful to read and feel
ReplyDeleteSMILES
Oooooooh, Shadow! Awesome! I love this! Way cool!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo 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!
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...
ReplyDeleteI like your words. Do you do much creative writing, or mostly poetry? I love both :)
ReplyDeleteI always love your 55's.
ReplyDelete"Wild as the moody sky," that phrase is an apt description for today. It teases my brain. (Hugs)Indigo
