Flash Fiction 55




Folks, it's time once again -- write your story in 55 words, then go tell the G-Man!


Mission to Mars

He reticently smiled,

“Come with me in my Pink Cadillac,
A Highway to Hell, our mission to mars.
You know how I like it, you know that I love it;
I’ll go faster, faster if you please, so
Put on your blue suede shoes, your
Leather and lace
Only the good die young
In space."

Quite an achievement, weaving all those musical lines into a 55. The reticent smile has got me stumped, though, LOL.

Somehow these lines reminded me of Dickinson's 'Because I Could Not Stop For Death' In a way it's romantic too. Jessie you see love in everything even in dying don't you?
