| 55Flash Fiction Friday |
I used to have it all,
fame, fortune, respect
and now I have nothing
except for Wendy.
We have been through thick and thin together
Here I sit on the street corner
Guitar in hand, case propped open
strumming for all I am worth
Won’t you help a fella out with a buck or two?

Sorry for being a little later with this. I expected to work a midnight shift last night so when I got home I went right to bed. In the end, no midnight was needed but that left me with no 55 too. I pounded one out and decided to sleep on it because it just did not feel right.
This is indeed fiction as I know how to hold a guitar and how to play a cord or two but that is about it. I just could not help but think about the person on the street that I see from time to time in downtown areas.
Time to be off to work. I will try and post this weekend since I did not post much with work getting making it hard to find time. Have a great weekend everyone.

This was so right, see what a bit of sleep can do. Haven't a buck or two will pounds do???
Queenie, how about we have a pint and call it good. That sounds so good about now. Thanks for getting my backside in gear.
Nice 55 Bryan and it doesn't sound like you rushed this one out, it's quite good.
You've had a rough week, sit back and relax and don't worry about posting.

How about a few rupees??? how many translate into one cent???
Ok ... here, take 47 rupees. They make a dollar! LOL!
Very interesting 55 barman! BTW: You didn't visit my 55 last week, at least not the last time I checked...
I'm uP...
~smile~
I just learned from mona that 47 rupees make a dollar!
I LOVE this, Bryan!
One of your best!
Wonderful again, Bryan!! I love the pic to go with. :) And I love the guitar name.

Have a pleasant weekend! Super cute doggie on your page header! Is that yours? What kind? Name?
Oh thats awesome Bryan, and I love the visuals as well!
Thanks for playing 55 with us.
Bryan when do we get to hear about the cornhole game and the camping trip!!
I don’t know, Brian, about dropping in a donation. That appears to be a damned expensive guitar case.
I saw an interview on the news years ago with a panhandler that begs in New York City. It seemed that he made more money doing that, than actually working. I'm a lot more careful who I give money too after that.
If it was me, I'd have a good old fashion Tommy Gun in that case.
It'd be much easier to get some cash that way!
Great 55.
And you know I played too!
Bryan...?
Playin on the street corner now?
Good job on the 55 son!!
Go Blue!!!
` Awww. So sad. Of course I'll give you a buck or two! *kisses*
` BTW, aliens.
` R GOOD.
Wow, I liked that one, as an old guitar player myself. People used to give me money to stop playing...
If this weren't fiction, I'd send you a two dollar bill.
Thanks for your comment on my HNT. That was one of the best comments I've received in a long time. My friend Dickiebo gives awards for best comments. I think you should win for that one.
:)
What a great 55 Bryan! I myself am NOT a guitar player but do love the music of the guitar...
Have a GREAT wknd!
;o)
I think there is a HUGE difference between busking and panhandling.
I LOVE street musicians and always stop to hear them play.
What a cool 55 topic.
I like it, Bryan. It's very touching.
