XLIV - Nicky

.

This week's writing challenge from Mama's Losin' It
is to write about a chaotic incident involving a pet.

Nicky

Nicky was a bulldog
Nicky looked a pug
Nicky had no braincells
Nicky was a thug.

Nicky bit the lawn mower
Nicky loved to brawl
Nicky took the neighbours son
And pinned him to the wall.

  2. He bit the lawn mower?

    What happened to the neighbour's son?

    So many questions, so few answers. You're teasing us!

  3. Yep. Bit the lawn mower. Lost his bottom front teeth for his trouble.

    The kid escaped shaken, not stirred.

  14. i wouldn't say that there was anything actually "great" about my short this week...or any week for that matter...and in the past it would've mortified me to post something that is sooo very average...but it's exercise...and no one should make fun of exercise. so i had to tell myself that it's okay that it's not that amazing...i'm exercising. ;-)

    you, on the other hand, are a rather clever gent.

  15. Is this being a goodly thing or is this being a thing of regret?
