Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.Here is today's story:
Enslaved
It put him down.
It kept him down.
He felt oppressed.
He tried to right the situation
He tried to set himself and others free.
He knew that some had succeeded.
Some had broken loose.
He saw them on TV in their freedom.
He was forever doomed to be held down.
He couldn't escape
Gravity
It kept him down.
He felt oppressed.
He tried to right the situation
He tried to set himself and others free.
He knew that some had succeeded.
Some had broken loose.
He saw them on TV in their freedom.
He was forever doomed to be held down.
He couldn't escape
Gravity
Since I discovered it was okay I am writing a second flash 55 which will be a continuous story but a complete story every week. Here then is the twenty fourth chapter in the exciting ongoing adventures of Sir Laughsalot and Robberhood
The entire story to date is HERE
The most recent chapters are HERE
Sir Laughsalot had stopped laughing .
In fact he was crying.
He could not ride a six inch horse.
He could ride a large frog, a giraffe, and perhaps a snail but not a six inch horse.
The incompetent wizard Moreless waved his hand again.
Puff. The real horse was back.
And laughter returned to Laughsalot..
Of course the dragons were busy today you can see them HERE.

Dr. John,
You have alot of talent here! I love the pics to help tell the story. (My fav is road runner)and nope I didnt know who was holding him down!

Great little twist! Please enjoy my 55 for this week.

Beep beep....the roadrunner's after you.
Mine is posted HERE...as always, scroll down below my Friday's show n tell.
Enjoyed it very much, especially that coyote, he's such a crazy clown.
LOL, i too fought gravity and gravity won.
As always, loved the ending.
I did NOT see Gravity coming! I was wondering what WAS coming... but I definitely did not "get it"!
I'm so glad Laughsalot got his horse back!
You have to go to some extraordinary lengths to get away from gravity.
Love it. Especially that ending, surprising... I like your poems, they are good yes they are.
Thank you Dr.
Gravity ~ A Heavy Subject
You know what they say; gravity sucks!
You obviously understand the gravity of the 55 Doc!
Outstanding contribution to the Funfest...
Thank you as always for visiting other 55ers, and have a Great Week-End...G
Ha,Ha,HA, ha HEE hee, hee
this is too much, i thought it was going to be really profound!!
and for this one i know Mel Blanc is tipping his halo to you sir!! great job!!
I'm glad Sir L got his laughs back; I had one too when I got to "Gravity". Love it!
I like them both. I could not, would not like to ride a large frog. They would always be jumping in water, or going into holes under the house and then there would be large spiders to contend with.
I think I am fighting gravity as I write this...Great 55! or two even!
Your 55ves always have such a wonderful twist! The pictures really make it fun! Great 55!
Gravity...I actually have a Wile E Coyote plaque on the wall in my office.
Hey, I work for local government. It ALWAYS feels like that rocky ledge under me is starting to crumble. :)
As always, thanks for the giggle.
Clever, as usual. I always enjoy your twists at the end. You're a modern-day O'Henry.
Find my Flash 55 for this week HERE.
