You see time #stretch as you #faint to the left. Speed up when you parry.
Left, left, left, & time stands still.
Oops.

#2WordStory #prompt #Catch/Lay #microlit In this short piece, laying down is more than rest—it’s a choice. And sometimes, what catches you isn’t outside the door… it’s already waiting in your own voice. #writersofbluesky #writingprompts Written by Eric Montgomery (mrericmontgomery.com) The clerk doesn’t make eye contact when he hands you the key. Room 9. Corner unit. Smells like rain even when it’s dry. They say the beds here whisper to you. Not sweet nothings—just the worst thing you ever did, curled up in your own voice. Some folks come for that on purpose. Others just needed a nap. You don’t believe it, not really. But the hum in the walls sounds like something trying to remember your name. You lie down anyway. The pillow exhales. And then your mouth moves. But it isn’t you speaking.
