prompt #58 What is the smallest thing beside you?
.
Angels are dancing
on the head of it
but from the other end
I’m being pricked
and poked.
I’m pitted with holes
and pinned together again.
My pieces are
held tightly and tautly
~if temporarily.

love this..
well done..
come on in when you can.
I like this but to the write Just move. don’t stand still. Don’t become complacent. the discomfort has a purpose. it is not a deserved punishment.
sad, you nailed it with few words..
cheer up..life is full of mishaps, you can shake it off and still smile with confidence.

I frequently write in persona, Jingle. I am just fine!
