55 Flash Fiction Friday - "Lost Time" - 11/14/08

I hadn't participated in 55 Flash Fiction Friday for quite a while. I decided this week I would try something a little different to inspire me. I wrote the 55 and then made an audio/video of it. This is my first attempt at such a thing. I hope you like it. Please excuse my raspy voice.



Lost Time

Never been in this kind of place
Worst task a dad can face
“Is this your son?” unzipping the bag
Name already on the tag
“We found a note, it wasn’t much
There with all the drugs and such”
His son’s own hand, his heart it tore
“Dear dad, I wish we’d gone fishing more”
