Tonight We Dine on Cringe
Waiter brought our food Told us to enjoy our meal Then I said, “You too!” *********************** Has this ever happened to you? If it does, please let it go. Don't beat yourself up. The person on the receiving end of your well intentioned misfire has heard it before. You're not the first and you certainly wont be the last. Relax, my friend. Hydrate. Get some sleep and hold your head up high. You're only human after all.

In Red
What lies on the road? Shadow, light, a shape... Is that...? The siren wails... Okay, I have been away for a while, but I like this prompt. It is a good way for me to get back to things. I have been working on a few pieces for challenges and my head has been in a very different space this week. I hope you like my Friday the 13th contribution...!
