Greetings all and as I type it's looking quite bright out there is it not? It makes the mood so much nicer when we see the sun popping out to share it's good nature. As always many thanks to all those who stopped by to have a read and to Anna for commenting, loving/liking my previous post. It's always most appreciated.
Yesterday, I thought of extending my blog out to a few more readers out there and looked to join a group to help with this aim. I loved the idea of reading a couple of other blogs in return for someone to peruse my own ramblings. However, it's a strange concept as it would seem at the present moment I'm unable to participate. I fancy it could be they are waiting for the start of the next month unless I am on some sort of banned list. Time will tell if this is the case but if I'm unable to take part I shall find another spot.
One thing that I see a lot is about tying blogs into your business etc. I get where they are coming from but goodness, for me that would be like a straightjacket. I'd much rather witter away about whatever comes to my thought process and sometimes for sure I will speak about Reiki, angels, card readings and so forth but not always. Sometimes as my regulars know I will wander off on a completely different tangent and I can imagine a po faced expert tut tutting at this wanton waywardness from where my attention should go.
Whilst I understand their concerns, alas I will not conform. I will type away wherever my muse takes me and from time to time I shall slot a short story in or a poem where the material will probably have very little to what I do. After all, it does give me huge scope to post away on whatever caprice holds my attention.
Speaking of old works, let's delve into the repository sitting upon the pc. What little nugget will spring forth today I wonder.
Faceless
I have the program. The subjects are not conforming to the strict guidelines set out. Enter button is pressed. The result inevitable. Removal from accommodation to be initiated immediately.
My colleague joins me by the wagon. The enforcers are seated already and the driver sets off at a good pace. We arrive in lowtown in less than ten minutes. I appraise the file once more and knock on the steel door.
A dishevelled man answers and bleats pleas about lack of finance. The enforcers push him aside and seize his belongings. There is the cry of an infant and a distressed female. It matters not, they have been evaluated and are to leave.
Their goods amount to little yet now belong to the state. The male is placed in handcuffs and receives a blow to the stomach to ensure compliance. The female is frogmarched to the rear whilst mewing about the infant.
It is left to me to collect the child. I am uneasy about how to handle such a being. The tot looks into my eyes and smiles. I feel within me something change. I am overwhelmed with an alien sensation. My colleague appraises me with some disgust.
The reptile within me fades. For the first time in many years a feeling I have not experienced manifests. This state of mind was squashed at state education yet it is unstoppable and commit an offence.
I laugh.
