Four Line Friday Pose on Saturday

I was inspired by another blog today-Daily Writing Practice by Marc, a Vancouver writer.

The exercise:
Four Line Friday Prose: keeping count.

My offering:

She falls down on her knees and rams her shaking hands into the crevices of the couch. Angrily she tosses the cushions on to the floor along with the crumbs and crayon. “Something, anything, please”, she screams silently as tears slide down her face. Sitting on the floor she looks into the kitchen at the calendar. Keeping count…day 7, drug free.
