Trying a New Meme

Lisa at http://www.writinginthebuff.net/ has led me to a new writing challenge. I have been reading her microfiction when possible, and she plays at Grandma's Goulash on Mondays by writing pieces based on a picture. However, the trick is to tell a story with ONLY 140 characters. I just couldn't do it. But this week I had to give it a try when I saw Mr. Perfect and his magnifying glass. My 140 characters are below. For full details and rules, please visit Grandma's Goulash at http://grandmas-goulash.info/.


I don’t think I’ll ever see
                                               Any muck tricking me.
                                               So don’t fabricate a tale;
                                               I know substances without fail.
                                               It's clearly true
                                               That on your shoe
                                               Rests a pile of doggie poo!
