Second Campaigner Challenge

Posted September 27, 2011 by elizatilton in Uncategorized / 21 Comments

It’s time for the second challenge! Here are the rules according to our beloved host Rachel

Write a blog post in 200 words or less, excluding the title. It can be in any format, whether flash fiction, non-fiction, humorous blog musings, poem, etc. The blog post should:

  • include the word “imago” in the title
  • include the following 4 random words: “miasma,” “lacuna,” “oscitate,” “synchronicity,”

If you want to give yourself an added challenge (optional and included in the word count), make reference to a mirror in your post.

For those who want an even greater challenge (optional), make your post 200 words

EXACTLY!

                                       
                                           HERE’S MINE!  
                                         A bit of flash fiction


                                            Lucid Imago

Lauri Blank

Her absence is a lacuna on my reality, leaving a miasma of
pain in its wake. If I could oscitate her shimmering skin and ethereal wings
once more, I’d imprint that vision of beauty onto my lids; never forgetting the
pink of her lips or curl of her hair. Instead, these shattered moments pass by
in a synchronicity of sorrow, flickering death and despair. My summer queen who
bloomed with vivacious fever disappeared with the wilting rose of winter.
