1. The Pole
He looked at the pole at his workplace. Strong, hard, metallic, male. Every day he would wear his hat & slide on it. Girls giggled when he talked about it. They’d bat their eyelids, smile and want one thing only.
‘So mister, what’s it like to be a … fireman?’
2. Burning Flesh
She stared at the flames. They had a hypnotic effect & were mocking her. She was trapped. Why had she ever entered this room? Flesh was burning before her eyes. Something had to be done or she was doomed. Panic!
‘How’s that roast coming along?’, asked the Master Chef.
3. Waiting
Cold sweat. Racing heart beats. Dub dub dub. The excitement of what was to come. Why had they done it? Why had they waited so long? Their lives had changed forever. Anticipation. Love. Panic. Worry. Joy. Mixed emotions.
‘Congratulations, your wife just gave birth to a boy’, said the doctor.
