Flash Fiction #284 – Too Small for Rosa May

Flash Fiction #284 – Too Small for Rosa May

Everyone in Crawfish County had a story about the late Rosa May.

There was her rumored affair with Elvis.

Or how she dragged a bear off her dog while wearing high heels.

And who could forget the Great Dorito Disaster, when her love of those “new triangle things” sent forty-two men to the hospital. (Doritos are still banned to this day.)

​

She refused photographs, so when one was discovered, business halted so all could witness the plane fly her likeness across the sky… only for one day.

​

All agreed that the 30-foot banner was too small for Rosa May.
