This week’s prompt is STACK
The back door slams
Slumped in the chair
Looking morose
A chair is kicked
Curses are uttered
A fist crashes into the table.
We ask the problem
You swear it wasn’t your fault
The other guy came out of nowhere
Just minding your business,
But you’ve stacked the car.
It’s a mess: police, ambulance
Tow trucks, blood, pain.
We look, no evidence its you
The other guy you say
Totally creamed me
He’s the worse for wear.
It’s all stacked against you
Speed, alcohol, irresponsibility.
Mum is shocked, relieved
She stacks away the washing up
Dad sits silently pondering
How to stack the odds in your favour.
You sit thinking on the repairs to your car
In your head a demon stacks
Reasons for your behaviour.
At the door a policeman brings
The worst news.
