So here we are again, All Hallows Eve, the day where I have to restrain myself from answering the door at night with a big carving knife to terrify all the kids and their stupid mums.
Halloween is an American thing. We don't do that nonsense here. Begone with you!!
"Get rid of it!"
"Don't be a #grouch, I was just—"
"It could be carrying something nasty. Remember what happened to—"
"Okay! I'm running the incinerator now. No need to get your tentacles in a twist."
"And don't forget to spray all the surfaces with antihuman disinfectant. Blech."

The whole country's in a grouch,
Though none of them would use
The word, and in it for different
Incompatible reasons. The Far
Right because they're not really
Winning, the government because
They're not really losing, just
Fucking up big time without
Having the sense to act for the
Common good. The sun lovers
Because it's raining and cold
And windy. The boring because
It's not raining enough, not cold
Enough, not miserable enough.

#MastoPrompt Tuesday, 27th May, 2025 : #grouch
Do I complain?
Do I moan?
Do I whinge?
Yes, of course I do... I'm a bean - a yewman bean.
But does that mean I'm a #grouch?
At times it may seem that way, but on the 'face' of it all there's a wicked, teasing, but good-natured smile.
I may actually be more of a Grinch than a grouch!
the cat paws at me
“where’s my food, human?”
sour grouch till he’s fed

The #MastoPrompt for Tuesday 27 May 2025 is:
The poem or story can include the prompt word or be about the prompt word.
@ me, if you like, or just include the #MastoPrompt tag (to allow people to follow or filter their feeds), or keep your work to yourself - all the options are good as long as you're writing.
If you're including an image please do include alt-text if you’re able to.

Quick picture of Sal in a cool looking outfit. What, you wanted context? Thats MINE! Haaah! Hahaha! #smeargle #sketch #quick #suit #grouch
I really unenjoy that Father's Day frequently falls on my birthday, stupid arbitrary calendar marketing events. #grouch
My billion-dollar idea:

A website where old folks can post pictures of themselves waving their fists at clouds.

#Listening to the album Further by kiwi electronic producer Grouch;

The first track, Chops, is a deeply moving psy-dub mediation on the undirected death of a friend.

Once again, Photorealistic art is not my strong suit.
But House was almost the first place my mind went when I saw the prompt.
The husband is talking about having a holiday party and my reaction is “ugh.”
