The power of the beast
Bright glow. Whispering voice lures me.
“It could be dangerous” but…
I open it.
Warm tentacles grab, his gaze tugs me.
I bow down…
Weird very small and powerful monster of my laptop.

This text is my submission to this weekend Trifecta writing challenge : Trifextra: Week Ninety-one.
Here is the challenge :
Have fun!
Lueur brillante. Voix chuchotante qui m’attire.
“Ça pourrait être dangereux», mais …
je l’ouvre.
De chaudes tentacules m’attrapent, son regard me tracte.
Je m’incline …
Bizarre très petit et puissant monstre de mon ordinateur portable.

Ce texte est ma proposition pour le défi d’écriture Trifecta de ce week-end : Trifextra semaine quatre-vingt-onze.
Voici le défi:
Il est maintenant temps pour vous amuser, Trifextra. Il y a trente ans, Roald Dahl a publié le livre “Sales bêtes”, un recueil de poèmes pour enfants sur les animaux étranges et merveilleux. Le dernier poème, cependant, est parle de la Bête du ventre d’un garçon qui pense qu’il y a quelqu’un vivant dans son ventre. Votre défi Trifextra est d’écrire 33 mots sur une bête dans un lieu insolite. Pas de marais ou les forêts ou des grottes, nous voulons vraiment que vous preniez votre bête hors de sa zone de confort.
Amusez-vous!
Bonjour, j’ai une addiction à mon ordinateur.

It could be just me, but I loved the French version more 😛
Maybe because I feel like I haven’t lost the knowledge I gained 😛
Lovely take on the prompt!

It often happens to me. Sometimes I prefer a version more than the other. I got frustrated with a version too or I would like that the english version was better.
Glad you enjoyed the french version…
Thanks for reading !
