I love learning new words. Thanks for word smithing such a great piece for the word you picked.
ReplyDeleteGood work.
ha smiles...yes i have no thoughts to be king either...fun take on the prompt...well played
ReplyDeleteGreat word! I'm laughing b/c I just posted a curse take on the prompt myself.
ReplyDeleteBefore looking it up, I was leery of that fancy new word, but it turned out to be perfect and the piece so descriptive, I suspect, of many people at the top.

I say live the life you want not the one you are born into!

ReplyDeleteAlways the grass is greener...

Ah! More dashed hopes!
