I love learning new words. Thanks for word smithing such a great piece for the word you picked.
Good work.
ha smiles...yes i have no thoughts to be king either...fun take on the prompt...well played
Great word! I'm laughing b/c I just posted a curse take on the prompt myself.
Before 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.
My Magpie 86 entry is Cepheus.
Somehow he just seems a little disapointed.
I think he would much rather not be standing utop the papers but rather nestled in the folds
...a part of the news.
I say live the life you want not the one you are born into!
Brava!
Always the grass is greener...
I love the way that you use words to frame your pieces of writing. Very effective!!!
Nice to meet you
Ah! More dashed hopes!
Clever Magpie - thanks for the new word!
Anna :o]
Poor little king! Really clever. And I like your profile blurb. :)
Wow! What a word! And poor little king. Authority is a burden.
