The dance began
A dainty two-step
Make that three
Two steps forward
three steps back
Two steps onto
ACK!
Truth be known
She expected less
two pounds!
Blasted diet anyway
Three steps back

the weekend Trifextra challenge this week comes from MOV from Word Cut: Write a horror story in 33 words, without the words blood, scream, died, death, knife, gun, or kill. Good luck! Don’t know about you, but it can be SKEERY getting onto the scale sometimes.
