55 - Out of His System

55 fiction!

Out of His System

He felt the rising bile, thick and vile against the wall of his will and throat, and refused to swallow. With relief – frantic, almost desperate – he grabbed at the tissue, letting it out.
-
Massaging his temples, leaning against the doorframe. She, crumpled, sits by the bed, absorbing the harshness of words he said.

Absurd 55:
Demise

The sound -
AAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMM
- like a siren it is breaking him.
Light shocks him – he shivers inside his skin -
TOOOOOOPAUUUUF THWOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRLLLLD -
- something thunders, deep below. It bursts from above, Zeus’ storm upon Poseidon. Our brave ant tumbles underwater.
Above, a little bathing girl squeals at the black speck,
looking down on creation.
