100 WORDS

Under the Influence

Thrifty Words 100 Challenge #20: Trance

The theatre.

Burlesque.

A mentalist.

The pocket watch swings before me.

Counts down

100,

Blackness.

Quiet blackness.

Emptiness.

Solitude.

Like floating, but not.

Nothingness.

Whispers in the darkness.

Glimpses of light.

Sounds, muted, far away.

Glorious nothingness.

Time stands still.

Time whizzes past me.

I am one with the universe.

Looking out.

I am outside of the universe.

Looking in.

I hear a snap.

A distinct snap.

Like fingers.

Light.

Sounds.

Dizziness.

Nausea.

I look around.

There’s a crowd.

A crowd of bobbies.

Lauralee.

On the ground.

Bloody.

My hands.

Bloody.

A knife.

Bloody.

What have I done?

I was influenced by this writing prompt. It was almost like it had e under its spell.
