The tunnel swoops in and scoops me up
As my model stands blinking at the echo of my last words,
‘Run into the light now!’
I look down at my body from above;
That wasn’t what I meant.

For this week’s challenge, we were to write 33 words as a prelude to these 5 – ‘That wasn’t what I meant.’

Welcome back, Potts!
Thank you 🙂 Sometimes you just gotta dive back into the deep end even if you’re not sure what’s under the surface…
Oh, no. That cannot be a good place to be watching from.
I gotta say, I’d be pretty pissed…
I gotta ask. What color was the light?
Well honestly, since I’m kind of a dork, I’ve always pictured it as the green of a retractor beam 🙂
awesome!
This comment makes me love it even more:)
Nice…! And so good to be “seeing” you again dear =)
Well thank you, m’dear. Sometimes life forces a hiatus on you 😉
ohhh…that was sudden scoop up..
If there’s anything we should have learned from Poltergeist, it’s never say ‘Run to the light!’

Lots of mistaken requests for death takes on this prompt. I love your twist on it.
Ha, I noticed that myself. I guess that’s the one thing you really don’t want to end up with by accident 😉 Thank you very much, and thank you for reading.
I love that first line – very cool.
Well yay, thank you very much 🙂

Ha, I’d never thought of that, but it would certainly make for an interesting twist
