A Short Comical Story Told In Two Parts

A Taster—

Any interpretation of this short story is done entirely at your own risk.

I have incorporated English names into this compact chronicle to avoid disappointing those who find Russian a difficult language to pronounce.

A Wild Winter’s Mid-Morning In The Reminski District, Moscow, Russia

His initial feeling of gushing pride at being selected by the captain of detectives from the final year of cadet school to accompany him to a murder scene was quickly forgotten as the ground beneath his feet both crunched in agony and screamed in pain, as by measured stride followed by measured stride, the distance between the warmth of an official car and the body of an untidily dressed man widened until at last the Police Lieutenant Colonel’s car was reached. A window of the automobile was lowered, but no invitation to share the warmth within was extended to the new recruit. Motionless he stood, unable to curb the chilling frost that rose through his leather-soled shoes and climbed his legs like Superman on steroids, soon eating at the flesh beneath his lightweight college garments. In increasing discomfort, he began his account of the scene he had just walked from.

I have today added three Kindles authored under the name of Danny Kemp to my Daniel Kemp Amazon author page:

Falling Greenhouses and Digestive Biscuits—A humorous account of stupidity.

A Shudder From Heaven— An observation on right and wrong.

And three short stories for the young at heart.

I am riddled by the predicaments
That have confused certain things.
I cannot understand why some judge others
And officiate as though they are Kings.

I find it somewhat bewildering
As they are never in the wrong.
But yet condemn others
Simply because they don’t think they belong.

If you base your assumptions
On things that are difficult to fully comprehend,
Then unless your knowledge is extensive
Where will your pomposity end?

To suspend oneself in silence.
To contemplate what’s real.
To ignore what has happened.
To pray for things to heal.

When life moves on regardless
Leaving you detached and alone.
What is there left for you to cling to,
Other than the past that you have known.

Some things in life are irreparable
But not a heart that’s on its own.
If love was cruel and is now ended.
That heart is as hard as stone.

To leave behind what cannot be mended.
To leave what you can no longer feel.
To accept what is finished and over.
To acknowledge that life’s an ordeal.
