The following fibs are extracted from a longer work-in-progress entitled “Imagine”, a rather disturbing story of Sally and the man who stole her away from childhood. Containing flash fiction, Fibonacci and prose poetry, it was originally written during a 12-hour charity writing marathon.

Part II

smile
once
Sally
just for me
show me those eye teeth
you’re such a pretty little girl

play
here
Sally
stay with me
we can watch TV
and cuddle on the couch awhile

you
are
Sally
just for me
sweet, smart, perky girl
sleep here and we will share our dreams


Part VI

stand
there
let me
touch your hair
press myself against
the freckles on your skinny arm
lick
salt
from your palm
sniff skin, imagine
that you are everything I love
