FOWC with Fandango — Flinch

Fandango
FOWC

Welcome to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (U.S.).

Today’s word is “flinch.”

Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.

Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Please check to confirm that your pingback is there. If not, please manually add your link in the comments.

And be sure to read the posts of other bloggers who respond to this prompt. Show them some love.

    she flinched
    at the news
    the prime minister
    and the premier
    are attending the wedding
    of a racist anti christian anti semitic
    misogynist obscenely wealthy scumbag
    who hangs with crims
    searching the atlas
    nowhere left to go

    ODE TO FLINCH

    I did a flinch at seeing
    This word challenge tonight
    I’m still not into functioning
    Can only think of zweite

    Sorry, we don’t hav

    eg

    Eine Tüte Chips und dane a definition for this word.
    n die zweite
    Und ich stopfe mir Pralinen in den Mund
    Davon geht mein Hintern sicher in die Breite
    Dann guck ich mich nur von vorne an – na und?

    Wot’s going on Fan?……

    Gremlins in Eine Tute Chips Fan……..I’m sure this poem has deep meaning
    despite no-one knowing what zweite means

    Eine Tüte Chips und dane a die zweite
    Und ich stopfe mir Pralinen in den Mund
    Davon geht mein Hintern sicher in die Breite
    Dann guck ich mich nur von vorne an – na und?

    When we hear of our history and current
    foundations, we mostly flinch; then worse.

      By “we” I mean western, settled/colonial economies, with the colonization both remaining and being carried on. The Supreme Court even references it to uphold the status quo.
