A writing challenge inspired by the below picture.
No one will find me here…
I have found the perfect final resting place for my horrible flesh prison.
When
I swallowed the pills as I was swathed in lovely vines, I knew that the
earth and its inhabitants would enjoy me more than any human ever did.
I was done trying to be the delicious sweet woman for them.…those of whom.
Always failing in my attempts to be anyone’s…anything…
And now as my soul is in flight my minds eye will see how the creatures of this exquisite earth will appreciate my tenderness.
Birds and butterflies will visit and gaze at my magnificence.
My love for anything other than what is enveloped in flesh, will be my last offering in a solid existence.
Mother
blowflies with a body color almost matching my chilled lips will find
nourishment and shelter for their babies in my orifices; unlike the
child that I failed to carry.
My body will expand with sweet gas and heat providing a safe wonderful haven for the masses that fill me.
My skin slides away like slippery thin ice providing needed oxygen for the children.
My blue cloak is now soaked with dark spots of watery slime.
The
strong odor of decay will permeate the air, but no human will ever
smell me, only creatures that can bathe in its bliss will be present.
My
puddle that I’ve created is able to provide body-building enzymes to my
little ones, and somewhere for them to swim in protection.
I am slowly seeping into Mother Earth as the days pass.
A migration is taking place and my fat happy children go free to pupate on their own.
The dry earth quenches a bit of its thirst with the last bit of my juices.
My bones are at rest.
The wind blows and creates a wave in my frock and drifts a wisp of my lovely auburn hair up into the distant sky.
At last I have been no one’s….something…

Such vivid imagery, Chimes! Gruesome, but wonderful…..loved how you gave such positivity to a dismal ending.

Thank you so much funfreak. You understood exactly what I was going for – gruesome but with a tinge of positive in the end.

this absolutely blew my mind sweet pea.there was so much emotion in the words present but equally in the words not present….. examples …..what would drive her to this and the backstory of the child that will never be born.maybe it was the child in some ways that drove her mad.i mean, if you wanted to give the whole thing a supernatural spin.
i love writing that gives me what i need in the way of answers and yet as well gives me questions that unless i am in fact the writer myself i can never rightfully answer, and thus forcing me to interpret what is there on my own.this the same as the last blog you did.i have told you how i took this even the first time i read it.it was as if your words could have followed what i wrote for this challenge.i am not sure if that was how you intended it to be but this just blew me away.it was as if i could see this picking right up where mine left off.oh, and the line -

that just blew me away.i am so in awe of you right now. i want to take your brain out of your head and make out with it.just so you know.

Thanks so much babe! I just read yours again and I can totally see how this can immediately follow yours as its companion. Wow, that is so cool because I didn’t intend it to be like that. The way I wanted to describe this woman’s story was how I explained in my peamail. It all goes with not being anyone’s anything and then finally being no one’s something in providing the birth of maggots and fertilizing the earth as she decayed. This made her existence finally worthwhile when she gave herself willingly in this manner. I think we should take both of our brains out and let them have some make out time together.
