Today's flash fiction #PaintTheCanvas

“May the force be with you.”
Isaac Newton*



Today I battled one of my inner demons, his name was Fred. I won. Now onto the flash fiction!




Paint the Canvas


      Take a blank canvas. Paint a picture showing happiness. Then love, sadness then war. All with smiles and tears all over. Color in the inevitably of death. Represent wealth, put gold and money in piles all over. Paint books surrounded by gods, deities and spirits of all kinds. Then create an image of a demon for every kind of fear behind them. And further behind them put a small white dot like a distant star for each kind of hope against them. Surround it all with the backdrop of a planet filled with some wondrous nature. Title the painting humanity and put the brush down.

Author Comment: Y'know how stories are supposed come in the first second or third person...? Not sure exactly where this falls, second I guess since it's the imperative tense with a you subject implied...? I did do the imperative sentence thing on purpose as an experiment.
