Round Red Robin watched the clock flip to O-two-hundred hours then his forehead struck the top of the sticky bar. Every year, he wanted to drink enough to help him forget Juli’s death but he never did.
The bartender rousted him. Robin mouthed off, got punched in the teeth and thrown out on his ass.

ReplyDeletehehehehehe
Vanessa, every week is an adventure with you.
You are far from predictable, and a FUN surprise!
Loved your Bird Brain 55
Thanks for playing, thanks for your special and creative contributions, and please have a Kick Ass Week-End
Kinda poetic or poetic justice? Nice accompanying photo.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Fantastic nest!
ReplyDeleteA robin with teeth eh? Next we'll have a lion with wings!
ReplyDeleteCleverly contrived 55!!
ReplyDelete(Love the pic!)
Vanessa, he should have stayed in the park! ;) Loved your 55. (Doesn't he know nobody likes a mouthy Robin?)
ReplyDeletePoor guy. I bet he does it every Saturday.
ReplyDeleteThis packs a punch I felt so sad for the Robin for his loss and the self-destructive grief great job
ReplyDeleteNothing more tedious than a maudlin drunk--I like the quirky you brought to this very much, Vanessa.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for the poor bird. Loved your 55
ReplyDeleteWhat a punch ~ No wonder the nest is empty ~ Happy Friday ~
ReplyDeleteHi Vanessa ~~ Nice to see this and to hear from you. This reminds me of the school days when the fad was to wear a string necklace of strung chicken teeth.
ReplyDeleteSince this is # 0001 I am thinking it will be a long series like you comic strip. That goes and goes. But it will be slow reading if only once a week and then only 55 words (like my Xentor Tales were/are).

I feel bad for the bird, but some critters sure don't know when to put down the bottle!

ReplyDeleteI guess it didn't quite work for RRR though.
