-There’s one on every block.
-The unique one?
-No, the weird one.
The one that stands out, showcasing all their differentness,
as though it’s good.
-The brave look.
-Brave? No! Obnoxious. Ruining the aesthetics of the neighborhood.
-Beautiful, visually challenging.
-You’re deluded.
-No, attracted.
– You and they should go some place else where that kind of look is down the whole street.
– Who would notice the design then?
-Exactly.
-You don’t want your eyes to be alive. You only want to see what you expect to see.
-Now you get it.
-Blind is good?
-It is for me.
Today’s 100 word story is inspired by the featured photo credited to David Stewart as part of Rochelle Wisoff’s Friday Fictioneers photo challenge.
I could write ten stories from this photo but I present to you only one. Do you want ten? Ask me in comments.
You know it’s true, there’s always one house that stands as a testament in contrast to all the rest.
Have a great day being who you are. Best, Clare
