Here I go again sneaking in my entry for week 75 of Saturday Centus at the last minute. Academia has a nasty habit of stifling my creative juices, but I have to try for the sake of my reputation as a teeny-tiny story writer! Jenny Matlock, from her blog off on my tangent, has challenged us with the prompt "Friday Night Football" this week.
My 100-word effort this week is entitled:
A Blurred Vision Of The Future
January 20, 2016
Dawn rose on the third year of the Rick Perry Presidency. The “Texaficashun” of the country was going well.
He replaced the Department of Education with the Department of Righteousness and declared Christianity the official religion of the U.S., referring to all others as “godless terrists.”
But by far his biggest contribution to society, besides introducing public executions as half-time shows at Friday night football games, was the Great Wall of America separating America and Mexico.
Few then could imagine it would be used to keep Americans from illegally crossing the border into Mexico to seek a better life.
