Magpie 89
Courtesy:  Tess Kincaid

The characters grew from their inception
Morphing into solid form somewhere along the way
My control over them waned as the plot grew
In the end they wrote the story as I became their tool
My heart broke with the surprise at the end
As I vowed never to do this again!

  1. Nicely done. I love passages that convey much in few words.

  2. Nicely done. Now if only I could convince my characters to take control. My Magpie this week is Poet.

  3. Bravo!

    One of the best Mags I've ever seen. Short, sweet, no wasted words.
