HUNGRY SIN

Daily Prompt: Ripped from the Headlines!

Head to your favorite online news source. Pick an article with a headline that grabs you. Now, write a short story based on the article.

It’s irresistible

The deep dark

Muddy desire

Lurking around

In shallow pools

Of hungry sin

 

It crawls undetectable

Under tables and beds

Slithers with languid tendrils

Catching us off-balance

Wrapping us tight

With unexplainable need

 

Relentlessly pursuing

As its hunted game

Unrestricted, passions untamed

Enticing us with an energetic force

To color each tomorrow

With the most picturesque regret
