Misunderstood — A Flash Fiction on Sharks.
Feb 17, 2022
Inspired by meeting and chatting to Elle McNicoll yesterday, when asked to write a 50 words flash fiction (Giulietta M Spudich) I knew I had to write it on sharks (like Addie from A Kind Of Spark.) So here it is…
Misunderstood.
by Hetty Monksea
Dark water hunting I go. My heart pounds. My fin tingles. The game has begun so I am silent.
If only people enjoyed my presence. Then they might play with me.
Often I like to imagine a world where sharks and humans lived in harmony. If only it were so.
