“Naughty John, Naughty John, does his work with his apron on. Cuts your throat and takes your bones, sells 'em off for a coupla stones.” --- Libba Bray, "The Diviners" #vss365 #prompt #bones 9 Oct 2019

“Aw no, I hate these old cases, sir.” “The dead still need justice, Haskins.” “It’s just a collection of #bones, it’s not like it cares.” “Sounds like you don’t have the stomach for it.” “Them too, sir.” “Do you think you’re being humerus?” “Tibia honest, yes.” #vss365

The door opens. “Ada Rimm?” “Yeah.” I hold out a badge. “Temporal Investigation. You heard about the #bones recently unearthed? Jack the Ripper’s victims?” “Yeah. So?” “One of them is you. Perfect DNA match.” “But—I don’t time travel.” “Yet. Come with us, ma’am.” #vss365

The demon grinned at the fox-girl. What lovely bones you have, It said. Look at those delicate hands. Let me see your fingers. The eye in the palm of the fox-girl's hand began to glow blue like the heart of a gas flame. Look into my eye, she said. #vss365 #bones

As a child, I spent a lot of time with my baba in the kitchen. I watched in horrified fascination as Baba used a cleaver to chop off chicken heads & feet. She had fat sausage fingers with which she deftly snapped chicken #bones or gently wiped a tear from my cheek. #vss365

She was hiding among the #bones of the old building, not more than a wisp, a hint of hair like straw, & icy blue eyes, & then gone, leaving him a crown of wild indigo. He could feel her, close. Despite his quickening heart, he kept still, hoping she would reveal herself. #vss365

I asked the stars for love. How cruel is it that I should find you. With so little hope for return. I will love you. As I always have. In blood and #bones and all things that create me. There you will be. Seeping into my marrow. Poisoning me with love. #vss365

I sat in the crossroads and found the velvet bag at the bottom of my pack. It had been years since I consulted the #bones,but they were still where I'd left them. No matter what we learn in life,at the hardest moments we still return to blind faith.#vss365 https://t.co/flCX5yPFTm

When I bought the house, the realtor happily told me it had "good #bones." They creaked in the night. Settled in the wee hours of the morning. Scared me half to death. Yeah, the house had bones all right. It also had nerves, and my presence was pinching every one. #vss365

Buried in a shallow pit There on Gallows Hill Hung to death, the #bones of which Haunt the ground there still On dreary nights They come to fright And play upon your fears Snuff out the light They take to flight As All Hallows' Eve draws near #vss365 https://t.co/kN9ZdFbEfL

“Hand me the mortar and pestle, would you?” She took them and began to grind the #bones of a small bird into dust, reciting the ingredients as she worked. “Essence of Wormroot and nectar of Nightshade.” She glanced over at me and I shivered. “This will do the job.” #vss365

#vss365 Her tarnished scales lift like scabs and seep green clouds as she strangles him with seaweed, wringing out his silent screams. She anchors him to the shipwreck for later. His #bones will tumble and wedge in the shifting jumble and, one day, be dredged. (From a poem) https://t.co/UX1wjJThXB

Nivea threw the #bones into the ocean, hoping she had seen the last of Ludwig and his reign of terror. But he had a sinister way of always cheating death, and she knew her hopes were false. #BraveWrite #vss365

I shift my #surface from blindly seeing to the great opening of my mortality I let my #thanatopsis seep from my aching #bones of longing how many lives must I live to be free? death will always come for me am I ready? or will I spend my days drifting from comfort to complacency?

If you fine my #bones one day please leave them where they stand The loves and worries that made them dance, have gone to far off land And if you must, make them flutes, play a small refrain So the song that was only and will be me, can be heard again #VedicRonin #vss365

I stole the witch's hat and she screamed she would turn my #bones to jelly. I did not believe her and the hat found its way to the back of my closet. Only, my teeth feel funny now, softer, spongy almost. I am afraid to take a step, afraid I will collapse into a puddle. #vss365

Many speak of the #bones of their home. They mean it metaphorically. Not me though. I like to speak literally. That's why I mixed the powdered bones and teeth of my victims into all the mortar and concrete of my home. My home: the antithesis of the phrase "good bones". #vss365

"I feel you in my #bones You're in my heart My brain is infected by you." Such sweet nothings If one were to make a sport of bluffing It would be you You're a champion liar It's true. #vss365 #TalesNoir https://t.co/pJCdSyFTmK

The old woman hobbled along the stony path carrying the remains of her husband Nothing more than ash and #bones Her only lover in life Her only mate till death The fires stripped away all that he was But he was whole in her heart Just as he had promised So many years ago #vss365 https://t.co/JwEds4csJX

Just for fun: Drenched in happiness and desire down to her very #bones, Janet Blake lifted her hand with a sated grin on her face. The Dracula family jewel sparkled. Countess Marya Zaleska had put a ring on it!🧔🏾🌈 #vss365 #writeLGBTQ #writersofcolor #amwriting https://t.co/rMSWi6qGwl

I pulled open the nursery door. “This!” The room was silent, and the smell was gone. “What? You’re so nervous lately.” “The music box went on by itself...the scent of gardenias.” “Uh-huh.” I straightened my spine. “Those #bones down in the cellar. I didn’t imagine that.” #vss365 https://t.co/TjPwLuZTfX

Two days after they moved in, they found the #bones in the cellar. The #temerity to die in their dream home! But nothing was going to spoil this. They took the bones outside and buried them. Resolved to never tell a soul. The next day, the house burned down. #vss365 #BraveWrite

On the #surface her #temerity held some #charm, but in his #bones he felt alarmed. When her boldness became less #innocuous he had to get away. Her beauty and intelligence weren't enough to make him stay. #BraveWrite #vss365 #vsspoem #writingprompt

In youth we climbed the fence The splinters of its #surface Pricking our fingers red But our #temerity Demanded that we see What vistas there lay hidden & there we saw our future Endless fields of #bones & so we climbed back down Disappointed & alone #vsspoem #vss365 #BraveWrite

-Ella, #bones soup you make? -Yes Zya, in nutrients quite rich -And bread you bake? -Comfort to soothe an itch -You eat for nutrition or comfort? -Mix of both and fun -Would fun come first? -#Temerity of spices like none #WritingCommunity #BraveWrite #writer #poem #story #vss365

The worn kettle belched steam and stank of rotting hemp and lichen Bleached white #bones shimmered in the boiling froth Bones of her enemies and friends alike Common townsmen and politicians From an oaken ladle she drank And her future was laid bare #vss365 https://t.co/R2Zym0kNEN

#Bones creaked as he sat onthe stool Interlacing his fingers he flexed them A front-row buxom girl made him drool A grunt cleared his throat of phlegm Wud he play with dexterity He thought not for the 1st time At his age he had the #temerity +he needed a dime #vss365 #BraveWrite
