WELCOME TO TUESDAY FLASH FICTION at GOBBLERS MASTICADORES!
A man is trapped in a troubling situation.
He very well knows that he’s crazy.
His pestering thoughts never let him be.
Maybe he needs more than human company.
Find out the fate of this man by reading ahead and clicking the blue link. Enjoy!
Biddu knew he was crazy. Every thought that ever occurred to him was outlandish and incomprehensible. He was aware that his ‘out of the box’ thinking was too flamboyant for a box or any other shape that was logically explainable. He had studied philosophy and biology and neither had done him any good. They had […]
I commented at the Masticadores site but wanted to say here that I really dig this one! Well done, Terveen! 🙂
Thank you so much, Mike. I really appreciate it. Sanity can be so boring. Have to let go sometimes. 🙂
‘Biddu knew he was crazy’. If ever there was a promising start to a story, it’s got to be this sentence. And you don’t disappoint, Terveen. What a story! I expected all sorts of possible companions for Biddu, but I never saw that tiger coming. Well done!
Thanks so much, Britta. Have to specify ‘crazy’, ‘not crazy’, or ‘almost there’. Can’t leave things in the lurch. haha. At least Biddu went out with a roar! 🙂
Well, he’ll have a captive audience for the rest of his life at least. Great story! 🙂
Now that’s a great way to look at it. Who could ever forget that spectacle? Thanks so much. 🙂
Brilliant story Terveen. That’s certainly one way to embrace death!
Thanks so much! It’s definitely a ferocious way to go. 🙂
What an awesome story, Terveen. I loved it! 😅☺️
Thank you so much, Jeff. Have to wonder why some do the things they do. :-)_
You’re welcome, Terveen. Always. Indeed. ☺️
A character who demands your interest
Thank you. 🙂
Brilliant! I thought it was a sexy doctor…😁
Haha! That would’ve been interesting… 🙂
😁
How liberating it must have felt to finally give in to the craziness! Ingenious! Brilliantly written, Terveen.
Thank you so much, Aaysid. You are so right. The insanity consumed him. 🙂
You are very welcome.😊 Love your stories!
Offering oneself to be a meal, omg!!, a holy saint, definitely not a lunatic. Awesome!! The way you conjured up the fall and the final annihilation was just wow!
Thank you so much, Deepak. One can say that Biddu sacrificed himself for the good of another creature. His intentions remain his own and it’s better that way. Always enjoy your creative comments. 🙂
My thoughts never let me be, either. I will go to the link and continue reading!
It’s a tough situation. Take care and keep going. Thanks Tamara. 🙂
That is a surprise ending. I have to say once in a while, one would hear news that a man jumps into the lion’s den or tiger’s enclosure. I’ve always wondered what kind of man would do that? I mean are they in their right mind? Aren’t they afraid of pain? It’s all in Biddu’s mind, really. You’ve described it so wonderfully…
I think you and me think alike on a lot of issues. I’ve often wondered the same. Some thoughts probably came out in this story. Thanks so much for your contemplation and thinking. 🙂
Adding “Being the Carcass of Someone’s Pleasure” to my Bucket List, just under Human Fracking, Planetary Hypnosis, and Rewriting My Genetic Code.
Hahahahaha. I think that’s a great bucket list, Rhyan. Nothing boring about it. Thanks so much. 🙂
