Changes
Jessica smiled from atop her chair.
“Tell me why you like it,” she urged Paul as he kissed her feet.
“I always have.”
“That’s not what you said when we first met.”
“I guess you changed my mind,” he shrugged and continued to worship.
“I sure did,” she thought, voodoo doll hidden under the seat.
Today’s piece has a classic feel to it in terms of overall structure, but the method of control mentioned is something I honestly don’t recall ever using before. Then again, I’ve written so many of these over the years that it’s impossible for me to actively remember every single detail of every single one. The inspiration for it came to me during a telephone exchange with a friend. She likes porcelain dolls but my mind thought of a different kind. Pretty random, I know, but that’s how things often go when it comes to the world of writing, right?
Groceries
There’s something wrong in Charlene’s list. Can you find out what it is?
– Whole wheat bread;
– turkey breasts;
– salmon;
– a hypnotized slave for the week;
– brown rice;
– red-wine vinegar;
– frozen broccoli;
– black beans;
– low-fat milk;
– eggs;
– butter;
– apricots;
– apples;
– carrots;
– lettuce;
The correct answer is “eggs”. She really hates them. What were you thinking, huh?
Do you still use paper for writing down grocery lists? I don’t. For quite some time now, I just keep a message handy on my phone which I edit as I see fit whenever I have to buy something for the house. I went shopping just now and actually wrote this while I was waiting in line. I might have snickered a bit but I don’t think anyone noticed it.
Sensibility and Mind Control
The water on the bowl was at 5 degrees Celsius.
“It’s boiling!” Jack protested.
It was pitch black in the room.
“Turn off the lights! I’m going blind!” He begged.
A feather slid down his back.
“I’m being whipped!” He screamed.
As she fed him countless suggestions, Agnes was reminded why she loved sensation play.
Let’s finish the fifth month of the year with a little bit of literature. Okay, not really. The title of the piece was indeed inspired by Jane Austen’s famous work – Sense and Sensibility – but the contents of it all have no connection whatsoever to her works. I’m just being silly again because… well, it’s fun. Altered states of mind often imply altered sensations as well. I gave you an example of such in today’s piece. Only 214 more to go!
