Here’s my response to Sammi Cox’s Weekend Writing Challenge. This week, the prompt is ‘brevity’, in twelve words. You can read her full blog post here: https://sammiscribbles.wordpress.com/2022/06/25/weekend-writing-prompt-265-brevity/

Somehow this made me think of the life expectancy of bubbles… and humans. Similar, although admittedly not quite the same.

Bubble or human

Life.

Brave story

of iridescent

wastefulness,

in the face of

ridiculous

brevity.
