Featured Flash Fiction
I write a lot of flash fiction – every Friday, in fact. Mine is always 100 words long, and you can find much more of it in the archive, and you can download my free ebook 100 Not Out.
TERMINAL NEUROSTUPIDOMA
The surgeon was showing the patient an x-ray of his head.
"Bad news, sir," said the medic. "That mass in your brain is terminal neurostupidoma." The patient shrugged. "Nothing wrong with me, doc." "Typical symptoms are complete deafness and blindness. You feel nothing." "Deaf? Blind?" "What's climate change? Black lives matter? COVID?" "Don't exist. Bullshit, all of them." "As I said, sir, deaf and blind. That and your hat." The patient stood up, marched over to a wall mirror and pointed to his red baseball cap. "So? It's a regular cap. Popular brand – AGAM. Everybody's wearing them." "Not everyone, sir." |
