The Grocery List: Part 2
To be exact, there is no grocery list part 1. I wrote a story but I didn't publish it. I did not like the list. It contained a red laser sword because I was angry at the time. The cuddly toy was nice though.
But I realised that I had to let go of the anger. It was the consuming me. I need to find my own inner peace.
To do this I needed a retreat. It is a retreat of the mind, but it is still a retreat.
So let's make another grocery list.
- Mango
- Apple
- Coffee
- See you next Tuesday (oh no, this appeared again and it is not a shopping item)
- Tea cake
- Earl grey tea
- Cuddly toy (I am at peace and want a cuddly toy)
- Bananas
- Toothpaste
- Shaving foam
- A red laser sword (ok, I'm going to give in to my anger and hunt you down anyway)
- Bread
- Milk
Ok, the list hadn't changed from Part 1. How did this happen? It is a nasty list. An angry list.
Let's make a nice list. Actually, let's not. I'm not going anyway.
Not until I've served the remaining 19 years of my sentence.
Thank you @ameliabartlett for the freewrite banner.
You are as always - delivering!!!! That last sentence! you have the art of the last sentence down!!
Yes, it does change the nature of the story. This is why I love the freewrite.

Can I get all this at the Piggly Wiggly? Also, does the red laser sword have batteries included? (Love your ending!)
I'd never heard of Piggly Wiggly. 😀 As for the laser sword, batteries are not needed. A kyber crystal will do.
Wow, what a list you have there. That's a long stint to endure. Nice job of list.
Hopefully, good behaviour will knock a few years off
He can only hope! At least he's ready to shop!
The last sentence is indeed amazing ... wait ... maybe "line" instead of "sentence" in this case? Anyway... I loved the red laser sword on the first list already, and was glad to see it on the second list, too, maybe at some point it will turn from a weapon of anger into something else, like a toy. Or depending on the sentiment in which the next list will be written, you might add a Darth Vader helmet...
It will be a cloak of Emperor Palpatine instead. He's the baddest of the bad men.
Thank you for your comment.
