magpile tales: photo each week ; and, let’s not forget the unforgettable marvin gaye’s rendition of the star spankled banner [utube]
we decided to start all over. from the beginning. and now there’s all sorts of dirty laundry piled high in our closet. his and mine. i only do laundry when there’s a slow movie with a hundred commercials. tho’ there’s not a tv in the house, no electricity. we lounge around in each other’s minds playing games we’re both familiar with. sometimes i watch out of spite not giving a inch. he manages a smile coming from day one starting the love cycle all over again.
There is something about this piece that drives home a familiarity and made me nod my head 🙂 Thank you for sharing.

mmm. nice unique take on the prompt…i do hope it goes wel with them…and i agree there is a comfortable familiarity in your words…
It’s the love cycle that makes all the spinning worthwhile..
very clever Mag..thanks!!
A sweet Magpie filled with all kinds of possibility! Yes, Marvin certainly knew how to do The Star Spangled Banner! Happy 4th!
the first line meeting the last line, absolutely perfect!
Love it!
(and thank you for commenting my magpie!)
how profoundly sad, but been there, done that! sigh
“sometimes i watch out of spite not giving a inch.” Gives it a real edge, Ms Pie. Clever and very precise, fantabulous.
It’s about that laundry. 🙂 Love this piece – lounging in either other’s mind is a fine and vital phrase!
loved the concept. great magpie! 🙂
I like the idea of lounging around in each other’s minds!
nice :), a familiar feeling “starting all over”
