I have no idea what this is going to be, other than a reaction to a student essay I graded this morning, a personal narrative about a day this summer when she, eight months pregnant, and her fiancé went to the laundromat on a Saturday morning. They were leaving when nine agents approached them, horse-collared her fiancé, cuffed him, and put him in a vehicle without allowing him to say goodbye to his pregnant fiancée.

Thanks Poppy! 💖 More great words… ✅ It’s been a fun year of Poppy’s Prompts. 😄 Have a lovely Christmas soonish❄️🎄.
Well done for doing this throughout the year and damn, those are some hard words to work with for a guy that doesn't celebrate Christmas. So, let's see how I can make something truly fucked up with them. Thanks for the inspiration and hope your 2024 ends on a high and 2025 starts on a high too!
Love the holiday theme words!! Thanks for hosting!! See you in a few!!!
