55 Friday: V-Day or not!

Yay!!! After a long break, of which I greatly felt the loss of, 55-Friday is back on Sepia Mutiny with the Lupercalian Edition. This edition is an anti-valentine's day one, for all us bitter, blustering singles. Teehee. Or you could write glowing accounts of your Valentine's day, but in 55 words!!!!

The Lupercalia is an ancient pre-Roman springtime/fertility festival that took place on one of the hills around Rome. Yes, pre-Valentine. Write no, oh flighty readers!

Here's mine:

At home, fundamentalists burn cards, and force couples caught in parks on Valentine’s Day to marry. Sitting alone in her room, she remembers a primeval ritual on a twilight hillside, when once a bubble burst from her insides and splashed the sky with stars. The best love memory on a day no one could desecrate.

Yay yay yay I feel so fulfilled and in control now!!!

Aranyi,

Quite well written. It really is.

We have talked this before through comments that a good writing shows a simple connection that is not obvious to everyone.

It's the bubble that created the cosmos. The 'big bang' is nothing but a burst of illusion.
