#vss365 Flashback!

March 28, 2025: #Mignonette

I hadn't encountered this word or the substance it describes before it came up as a prompt. I had a visceral reaction when I looked it up--maybe an overreaction, unfair to folk who like their ocean slimes pungently flavored. Still a hard pass for me.

"It is a #mignonette or a #gossamer feel," Caesar said. "I always imagined there was a #euphoria taste of it."
Tharra crinkled his mouth. "You are merely a #velveteen fabric like the rest of us. Assassins are common and disposable."
"That's what you think." #vss365

A poem based on a true story of failed filet mignon and the freeing of a locked-in fille. Inspired by #VSS365 prompt #mignonette. Full poem on Substack. Yes that's me as a tree climbing kid, une fille aux cheveux de lin. open.substack.com/pub/emilykam...

Like the last,
She's gonna get stuck
'Member they tried?
15 minutes, no luck?
A minute passes,
2, maybe more
A growing cry from
Behind the door
Must be locked,
To action I set.
Hands to wood
Oh sweet #mignonette!
With a bit o' effort
The door it opens
Freeing the lass
No longer a shut-in.

 The profile of a beautiful bald woman who is the flower, flowers growing from her head and neck. Her skin a beautiful pale tan, mottled with buds of flowers sprouting from her head and full beautiful yellow blooms. She was created from the poem An ambrosia of scent Lingers long in my mind Bringing back memories Of love in the spring A weed in the garden That outshines the rose We come for a look And return for the fragrance The lovely #mignonette A secret matchmaker For the lover’s embrace

An ambrosia of scent
Lingers long in my mind
Bringing back memories
Of love in the spring
A weed in the garden
That outshines the rose
We come for a look
And return for the fragrance
The lovely #mignonette
A secret matchmaker
For the lover’s embrace

Without giving it much thought, I snap off a stalk of the plant. It looks like the fragrant #mignonette from Earth. Montor snatches it out of my hand and tosses it.

"Mina, you should ask first. That shrub is extremely toxic."

"Yeah, and it smells horrible, too."

Jeff ended up being several inches taller than him. He tilted his head down and took a big sniff. "Are you wearing a #mignonette cologne?"

The Redcloak grabbed him by the arm and pushed him towards the doors. He stumbled and had to catch himself on the vertical grab bar. #vss365

what are these small lumps of meat? I ordered a supersized steak!

this is filet #mignonette, our chef's latest creation. mouthfuls of bite-sized pieces, cuts out the knife work, just fork it up. so tender it dissolves on your gums

“So, #mignonette isn’t just a small steak?” she ventriloquized while sipping a glass of milk.

Yellow star thistle is the plant rendering much of California land useless.

Kudzu is the vine that ate the American South.

But #mignonette traps souls with its alluring scent, infecting their victims through smell. By the time they register the fragrance, it's too late.

i will never forget
your frozen fingers
curled into mine—
the night
we first met—
how the sound
of your name
brushed the air
against my neck,
held me
like a spell—
#Mignonette.

"Is that #mignonette lace?"
"It is, m'lady"
"A man of #culture, I see"
"From one as elegant as you, there is no higher compliment"
I bow and kiss her hand. She watches coyly, fanning herself. If she knows who I am, she hides it well.
But assassins are good at hiding. As we both know.

lace, a #mignonette

a second's warning's all you get.

Always waiting, then
the door, and in walks an

We could hear the king of the giants' footfalls for a week before we saw him. His head split the sky in two. We tried to plead, we tried to reason. But he had already scented the blood of his young. He sucked the skin from our bones like he was slurping oysters served with a fine #mignonette

Deep in the caves on Paree II, a rare find--a rich vein of pure #mignonette.
Unfortunately for the miners, the sentient oysters on the planet catch wind of this and form a plan.
"We must #strike first! We'll smoke them out, then pepper spray them. Karma, bitches!"

Oysters increase desire
She said
Delicately spooning
The #mignonette sauce
Into the shallow shell
The man tipped his head
Mouth open
And kissed her hard
Yes, it’s true
He said #vss365

My emotions are a #mignonette. The vinegar my anger over what I can't control, burning me up from the inside.

But there is balance, the sweet shallots my love for you, and the spicy pepper my desire, to be with you as I have yearned to be with someone, anyone.

As my truest self.

"What? #Mignonette? I know women can perceive more shades, but that' ridiculous."

"Okay. So, what colour is it?"

"Er... Khaki?"

"Your trousers are khaki. That shirt over there is sage. And THAT colour is mignonette."

“But the oak in the inner yard is tall and strong.” Caelan braced for the answer—it came, swift as an arrow. “Bands of iron hold the trunk and chains uplift the branches to heavenward. Unbound, it’d crack these very walls. Believe me, #mignonette is your best bet.” #vss365

“Oak, you say? The oak that is felled to make spears and bows... discarded on the battlefield? The trunk turned into a ship’s stem... pummelled by sea and rocks and then sank when no longer worthy. I would sooner be #mignonette.” Armuña said solemnly. #vss365

Caelan rubbed the spot where Armuñas bony hand landed. It felt worse than a mace—and the serjeant-at-arms wasn’t gentle, not even to the ground he stomped on. “But it means small, tiny little thing. I do not want to be a #mignonette; I want to be an oak.” #vss365

“ #Mignonette is not flashy and neither are you boy, You just look weird with those eyes and that skin.. Not so different from the skin of an honest worker, but you’d better learn to keep your eyes proper. None wants to see a fox leering at them.” #vss365

“It is easy to be an orchid in the world, but with such behaviour you tempt the fates and their scissors are sharp and waved around as they quarrel over which thread to sever,” Armuña said and threw the withered orchid away. “It is better to be a #mignonette.” #vss365

I wish I'd have been the #mignonette growing in the wilderness
the hope where dystopia clambers from the floor of a defensive wrist away from
a fathers infuriating fist

Little blossom, tight + green-- you were never meant to be rose or lily-- never fashioned for the grand bouquet.   But oh, how the bees remember you-- how the breeze carries your spice-- humble, quiet, enough.   Unfurl now, small + sure-- not in borrowed petals-- but in your own sweet scent.

Here is today's poem called "Enough"
