Redundant

A wizard lost his job.
He leaned his staff against the wall.
Sad down and thought about what he might do next.

Safety

Justin put on a helmet,
And ran head first into a wall.
Everyone cheered.
Justin stood up and punched the air.
He wanted to do it again!

Macho

Charlie refused the soup.
'It's too gay!'
He declared.
Before turning back to his videos of big bearded manly men,
Bulging through their slim fit t-shirts.

Reputation

Mary slept with an abundance of men.
She went on to lie about this.

Boots

Albert bought some boots off Amazon.
He planned to hike in them.
Acquaintances were contacted with a link to the boots.
He told them this.

Push-up

Porkins attempted a push-up.
This was to attract Sandra.
His arms snapped off.
Porkins looked up.
Blood dripped from his nose.
He asked of Sandra would aid him in opening a packet of crisps.
The door eased its way closed behind her.

Arrest

Rocky got arrested for something minor.
He asked the policeman if he'd appear in the local paper.
The officer shrugged.
He wanted to get out and read about himself in there.
That was his dream.

Protector

Smith bought a screen protector for his new phone.
He looked forward to buying a matching phone.
He stared at the tempered glass.
Imagined it laid upon his newly acquired device.
That would be a good day.

Diary

Sue kept a diary.
Read back through the past week and bored herself.
She arranged a bungee jump for the following weekend.
Looked forward to reading about that in a couple of weeks.

Yes

When Ed proposed to Kathy he didn't imagine she'd say yes.
He had to go along with it.
He'd feel bad otherwise.

Tyre

Richard's car got a flat tyre.
He let down the other three to level things out.

Tack

Trilby picked up some blu tack.
He stood in a queue,
Imagining the possibilities.

Cult

A few people got together.
They bought big hooded robes and formed a little cult.
One of them ordered a large round table to fit the vibe.
It was cumbersome and didn't really fit in any of their living spaces.
Meetings devolved into complaints about the table.
How some had to squeeze around the edges to get in their seats.

Closed

Barry roamed the countryside.
Starving.
Because it was 8:30.
And no pubs were willing to feed him.

Secret

Howard made a point of using the same name for all his dogs.
This made it easier to remember password recovery questions.
People thought he was weird.
He didn't like that.
But Howard couldn't let them in on his secret.

Trek

Frank noticed the trees were leafy.
And the ground was grassy.
And the path was rocky.
His trek continued.

Carpark

Bernie searched for the busiest walks in the country.
She loved the hunt for parking spaces.
The rage emanating from other drivers trundling by as she informs them she's not ready to leave.

Fields

Frank went hiking.
He walked through a field of sheep!
And then he had to walk through another field of sheep.
And then there was another field of sheep.
Then his legs began to hurt.
Frank started to miss his computer.
There were pictures of sheep on his computer.

Goth

John regretted his decision to become a goth,
Right before the heatwave set in.
