Marks where
I Murdered the Ex.
Rubbed him out good.
Tried to leave me, that
Cold-blooded
Cold-hearted
Bastard.
Smashed his head
With his favorite hammer.
Then I laughed.
Not really sure about this one...it's like a sauce that needs a little extra pinch of something...any suggestions? I was aiming for a blues song.
Apologies for the word 'bastard'. I don't really consider it a curse word, but some people do, and that's okay. The word seemed to fit within the context of the piece and that's why it is in there.
Your challenge this weekend is to give us 33 words about anything you want. Your piece must include at least one hyphenated compound modifier. Remember that the hyphen will join your two words together to create one, so you will have a bit more wiggle room with your word count and language. You are free to use more than one hyphenated modifier in your post, but we ask that you be careful not to sacrifice readability in the process.
Smashed him with his own hammer...funny. I have finally finished my a-z.
ReplyDeleteGood for you. As for me, thank goodness there's only 26 letters in the alphabet!
DeleteOuch! And with his own hammer too. I love this! It definitely has a bluesy feel, but maybe exchanging laughter for drowning sorrows with whiskey would seal the deal? Of course, then you'd be over the 33 word limit!
ReplyDeleteThat darn word limit! It certainly keeps me on my toes.
DeleteYikes! Smashed? She really got him good. That bastard (just repeating you ;-))
ReplyDeleteSmashed is such an illustrative word, don't you think?
DeleteAh just what I like;-)Got him good & proper,lol!
ReplyDeleteI don't think this needs a pinch of anything. She killed the bastard with his favorite hammer and laughed about it. What more could you add? Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :-)
DeleteNo, no spice needed. This is stupendous xD
ReplyDeleteI like it. There is something poetic about smashing his head with his favorite hammer.
ReplyDeleteTook him by surprise I guess. Now is she going to dress him up and put him in a chair or dump him along a lonely highway.
ReplyDeleteGreat fun, this was. Some folks don't like the word "bitch", some don't like the word "bastard". I consider them tame, generic, words for female or male, strong-willed person, who may or may not be a jerk.
ReplyDeleteOkay, so, smashing an ex's head in with his own hammer, and you're worried about the word bastard?
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha
Seems cathartic to me!
Haha! I absolutely did not even think about that before you said anything. My brain needs a vacation!
DeleteHaha! Oh yeah that outta got him! :D
