It was a wild and trippy day; I had been sleep deprived for over 4 days, and nothing I could do, nothing could help me get sleep.
Those were days where I was good at running, I had a good stride and I could keep running for quite sometime. In my insomniac tired state I was stupid, I decided to go running to see if that would help me get some sleep.
So I ran…
*jingle jingle*
I freaked!
I ran some more…
*jingle jingle*
Holy Crapola! By now I was sweating more because I was scared out of my wits!
*jingle jingle* with every stride I made while running, and the cadence only picked up when I myself picked up, there was no ending to the maddening *jingle jingle* noise.
So out of exhaustion, out of giving up I stopped…and so did the *jingle jingle* I put my hands over my head to catch my breath, I put my hands in my pocket, when I felt an odd piece of metal in them, I pulled it out and…
That was the day I met Abraham Lincoln!
~Nathanael~
That Lincoln looks like he has been run through the mill – poor guy.
Ha, ha. Very good for a change. (They’re always very good. I was just making a joke!)
Hah! We really don’t think straight when we’re tired, do we? Glad it was just Abe.
Very creative. I hope things are better now, sleep-wise.
Thank god they put Abe on some coinage so you and I would have something to write for this prompt!
Hey Nathanael! Did you chew him for a while after? Man, he looks like he fought the Civil War all on his ownsome. Indigo
Hah! Well done Nathanael!
Ha ha! Very clever!
That penny looks like it’s seen some things. Did you steal that off of Two-Face or something?
