Oh, Jeff... I love you, too... But (Challenge Entry)
For Raymond G. Taylor's "Oh, Jeff..." Challenge
Oh, Jeff... I love you, too... but… You confuse me. You walk with elegance and grace, and you speak in smooth, soft tones. Your pretty-boy face is flawless. When I kissed you, it was divine, but I knew you weren’t quite the man you claimed to be. Oh, Jeff… I love you, too… but… My biological clock is ticking.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

The Day Everyone Stopped Looking at the Sky
On the morning the sky changed, no one noticed. Cars moved through traffic like obedient insects. Coffee cups steamed in bored hands. Notifications buzzed, chimed, and blinked like impatient fireflies demanding attention. Heads were bowed—not in prayer, not in reflection, but in devotion to glowing screens.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.

Lovely sensitive and enigmatic take on the brief. Such an amazing range of responses to this challenges which is fantastic. Thanks so much for your support
This hits with a mix of charm and humor—smooth, soft, and then bam, reality check! The elegance of Jeff’s demeanor paired with that ticking clock is an unexpectedly brilliant twist. It’s giving sharp wit and relatable truth in one perfectly timed mic drop. :)
Oh, Jeff. You dog. I seriously love seeing everyones imaginings of Jeff, it cracks me up every time.
I knew a man like Jeff.
Methinks Jeff definitely may need therapy. Rick, I think you've correctly pegged Jeff as a "player." All the best with the challenge!
I love the soft language used here
Beautifully captures inner conflict and unspoken emotions—very compelling!
