Inspiration Challenge – Old Man Winkle

Happy Summer Hipsters!

These are the days, the days of long sun and splendor for those of us who self-determine well enough to not know what day it is. But we feel it. 

We feel that time of year when we can diffuse direction and sink into a sunset with a beer.

You wake up slowly, the next day. You’re out of coffee and the bread smells weird. You decide to go out for breakfast. 

It’s a week day. It’s sunny and the morning air is still smooth and cool. You feel fantastic.

When you arrive at the diner, you get the last table. Just as your breakfast arrives, an old man asks if he can sit with you. 

What happens next?

Fact, fiction, poetry or prose…
