January Prompts 5676-5700 

29 January 09:15

5676 History gets murky

5677 Fat laundresses with beaming smiles

5678 They eye in the candle, the tears in the smoke

5679 Breast of Lamb

5680 The wind can read a book in a second

5681 An old canoe, eaten by worms

5682 Waiting for the pause, the shared, profound cigarette

5683 We are a long way from Africa

5684 The sea is always sly. It is old and cantankerous

5685 The smell of an empty larder

5686 Somewhere in the bowels of night

5687 Quicksand, Quatermass

5688 The hiss of water through the rocks

5689 Waste Nothing

5690 Miles of white sand, dangerous water

5691 The brutal truths of necessity

5692 Straighten your tie, stand taller, and leave

5693 Tablecloth, napkin, cutlery,

5694 The dark smell of stopped rivers

5695 He may have been called John

5696 A love like cold concrete

5697 Soup in a silver tureen

5698 Disappointed fishermen turning for home

5699 Let’s build seventy-three hotels, three casinos

5700 We need something to fight for
