So I decide to rejoin the ranks of Saturday Centus only to discover we've been limited to 25 words this week. Seriously Jenny?!? 25?!? Ok, whatever you say, I can do this.prompt is in color:
The lottery ticket slipped from my fingers and fluttered along in topsy-turvy arcs down the street. I considered chasing it, but why… it’s just one more lost dream.

Oh, run after it! You never know... Nice take on the prompt. Kat
Ooooo....this is so good...depressing, but so good...Peace and blessings
I love the sense of voice in this - and the silent sigh at the end. It made me laugh actually, in total contrast to your poor butter fingers! Have you seen Tales of Mere Existence on YouTube - similar vibe.
Very creative! Brill!
Gotta think positively!
I'm positive this is a great take.
Nicely done! I could totally feel the hopelessness and resignation in the narrators tone. Great use of the prompt!
You never know. It could be a winner. I probably would have gone after it, ha.
Yes, best to let go :)
oh, I feel sad. No hope? Without hope what is there?
I liked this one. You conveyed a lot with your 25 words.
=)
What an absolute micro-gem you shared here with us.
I feel the helplessness in this little story.
It makes me want to hug you.
