Dribbles And Drabbles : Cobra by Brett Matthew West 80 Word Flash Fiction writing prompt entry |
To George's nearsighted eyes the brass-plated shower unit head resembled a poised and ready to strike cobra. He mistakenly hit the cold water tap in the dead of a frigid winter morning. Unprepared, the shower spit its icy venom directly in his face.
George shrieked bloody murder and leaped with the agility of a frightened mongoose. His shivering hand slithered towards the tap. Rapid circular motions followed. In a heartbeat the fatal attack ended. Victorious, George exhalted in being safe.
