Crimson’s Creative Challenge #74

CCC#74

They were not supposed to tear down the towers – for reasons lost in dim history.

“But they’re useless!” the developer exclaimed.

“Those were the instructions left behind,” the mayor insisted.

“But they’re useless!”

“We’re not tearing these towers down. You’re welcome to look at other potential sites for your project, but those towers are off-limits.” The mayor’s tone was decisive and brooked no nonsense.

“Fine, we’ll look at other sites. But none will be as perfect as that site,” the developer acquiesced.

There was no point talking to the mayor – it would be much easier to rid that useless fool and installed someone of his own.

Those accursed towers! the developer glowered at the eyesore pinning his master. After years of searching, he finally discovered the sealing chamber of his master.

All he had to do was to rid the sealing towers and his master would walk again!

Welcome to my weekly challenge—open to all—just for FUN, FUN, FUN

Here’s how it works:

Every Wednesday I post a photo (this week it’s that one above.)
You respond with something CREATIVE

Here are some suggestions:

• An answering photo
• A cartoon
• A joke
• A caption
• An anecdote
• A short story (flash fiction)
• A poem
• A newly minted proverb, adage or saying
• An essay
• A song—the lyrics or the performance

You have plenty of scope and only two criteria:

• Your creative offering is indeed yours
• Your writing is kept to 150 words or less

If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it
If you include Crimson’s Creative Challenge as a heading, WP Search will find it (theory)
by ‘Searching’ in the WP Reader (fingers crossed)

Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN.
