Friday Flash 55- Treasure on the Modernist Beach
Sand Currency?
First day on beach, bend to retrieve bleached disc. Amazing! Haven’t found one for ages, and its worn radius is barely graded. Central imprint–bifurcated–strikes me as unusual, but my luck-starved mind grasps for ‘rare!’ ‘modernistic’ and I handle with great care.
Takes me a dip in the cold sea to see….styrofoam.
The above is posted for Friday Flash 55 (a story in 55 words, plus, in my case, title) for the G-Man. Go tell him.
And have a nice weekend.

One of man’s less admirable traits: littering.
Nicely told.

I was thinking ‘brain scan’ or ‘pie’.
