This is a Test of the Emergency Prosecast System
I don't care about the "LaTEST" and "GreaTEST" fads numbing the minds of society today. In fact, I'd rather take a kick to the TESTes by an ill tempered bull elephant than be subjected to the deTESTable things that pass for the hippest forms of entertainment today. Social media, top 40 music, internet celebrities, and social influencers, none offer the fainTEST bit of quality brain candy. Let me just say in the blunTEST way possible, I feel that in some ways pop culture has become a tape worm burrowed into the inTESTines of our intelligence, that greedily drains us of our imagination, commonsense, and the ability to identify quality entertainment.
Let this stand as my proTEST against the conTESTable state of what is considered entertainment these days. Nowadays talent doesn't matter. Those who want to break into music do not need the sweeTEST of voices. In fact, they don't even need to have remoTEST bit of musical ability, technology can fix that. To be a great pop music star today, all anyone needs is to have the svelTEST, tighTEST of bodies which can make young girl's the moisTEST or TESTosterone filled guys develop a boner the swifTEST. Sex sells. If you are one of those rare modest individuals who keep to the chasTEST most sedaTEST of attitudes, you can forget a career in music.

Tests, Pens, and Asses
If this is a test
Get pen and paper
Close all your books
And reach for your neighbor
Tests tickle
My fancy
Behold them
Romance me
My pen is awesome
Held tightly grasped
The ink is flowing
My intentions unmasked
Harass
Is just lovely
As uninvited
Discovery
I keep abreast
Of friends by the pair
They wave back to me
By breathing the air
There are ways
To make you tick for days
But, tocks are the
Very stuff of praise
You an'us
Why all the fuss?
Words are just toys
We slyly discuss
Only one letter between
Insanity and inanity
Read between the lines
To uncover profanity
Test the Waters
Oh, hello. Yes, it is a beautiful lake. Very beautiful. It’s man-made you know. They built a dam and flooded the area. Fifty years now. My house was down there on the river. Well, my wife’s house. Been in her family for over a hundred years.
Of course we fought the project. All of us who owned land and houses down there but when the government wants something you always lose. They did pay us, but not enough.
My wife said she couldn’t bear to see the house destroyed. They didn’t tear them down though, just left them there to be covered by the water. No, she didn’t want to see that.
Oh, she’s gone. Heh…disappeared with one of the engineers on the project actually. So ironic.
She couldn’t bear to watch. I watched. Watched the water spill over the streets, gardens, houses. Watched until all was hidden. I wondered about animals that may have been trapped down there. Rats, maybe. Trapped in a basement; unable to get out, feeling the water rise then gasping one last time before the water filled their lungs. Yes…rats.
I moved away but I come back every year on this day.
It is a very beautiful lake.
LOL I wrote this for the Friday the 13th challenge but didn't get it in in time.
