Trifextra: Road Kill

| 26 Comments

My breath snuffed, my heart stopped, I hover between time and space. My four-legged life over, I wait minutes until I emerge, squalling and screaming, under bright lights, my new human life begun.

This weekend’s Trifextra assignment was simple: Rebirth in 33 words. Mission accomplished.

Please leave your thoughts, as they are much appreciated, in a comment.

Thanks for visiting! See you again soon!

  1. Interesting. A little creepy that a baby may have been road-kill before. And it takes mere minutes! :-)

  2. I like this! You did a great job with the prompt.

  3. Good one! Reincarnation, what fun!

  4. Love the reincarnation angle!

  5. Nice piece. Wow, that title!
    (Have you read Bad Karma, by David Safier? Very, very funny.)

  6. Oh, I like this take on reincarnation! ^__^

  7. Interesting. I went from heartbreak to wonder.

  8. This was really interesting. I love the idea of reincarnation. It explains a lot, right? :-) Thanks for linking up!

  9. Wow!Reincarnation-after life-a theme which we,Indians,are taught to believe in-& ‘cos the dog is now being born as a human,it means that it’s good Karma must have promoted him to a higher plane- a wonderful piece:-)

  10. This is fascinating. Very good writing.

  11. Reincarnation always fascinates me. I like this, moving up from animal to human. Or, would that be a downgrade?

  12. reminds me of that reincarnation piece I did for Red Writing Hood a few years back. The cat that was dumped in the water? And it was born as a human child?

  13. Short and sweet. But what is he/she starting life as? A human? or something else LOL?
