Trifextra: Week Ninety-Seven
It is Friday and thus time for Trifextra:-)
This weekend we are being asked to add thirty of our own words to the following three words for a total of thirty-three.
myopic
dazzle
basin
Here are my 33 🙂
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Forever…always
Your honeyed lies dazzle me. Am too myopic to see the veil of deception. The sword of reality cuts deep. I bleed tears. You leave. The acid of betrayal spills, turning the basin red.

@Zebra Crossing 
That was lovely and sad, very good!
Thank you so much Glynis:-)
Honeyed lies.. great phrase, Atreyee. So sad, and all too real.
Thank you Steph and yes you are so right-all too real-sadly!
Love “sword of reality.” It is indeed sharp and unmerciful. Great work!
Oh,am so glad you thought so JM-thank you for coming by to read and for this lovely comment:-)
Oh dear, Atreyee! This is so filled with sadness but a very good write though :)))
Thank you Jo Anne-you are very kind:-)
Excellent use of the three words.
Thank you friend:-)
Beautifully done. Graceful rhythm.
Thank you so much:-)
I checked out Trifextra. Sounds interesting. I might also join.
Oh great-hope you will-there are still some 10 hours left-will chk later tonight before I go to bed-can’t wait to see your piece:-)
Looks like I might not make it just right now. I’m self publishing my first novel. That and Christmas seems to be taking up a lot of my time.
But I will save the name and hopefully I’ll be able to get to it.
Oh wow-a novel?My best wishes for the same and wish you a Merry Christmas a lil in advance-am off to my school reunion in a couple of days -so will not be around till 25th,u tc and God bless:-)
Have fun at your class reunion. And have a blessed and marry Christmas.
I’ll be staying here. My brother and his wife are coming to visit, not just me but her family and friends as well.
Thank you MR-we do not celebrate Christmas-we are Hindus but thank you for the thought:-)
Good to learn that you are having family over for the holidays-enjoy 🙂
Hope this week you are writing for Trifecta-only 33 words-heck it out if you like-I will be posting mine today and hope to write for FF tomorrow when the prompt is posted-3 more days to the reunion-am excited like anything:-)
Not sure when or what the Hindu Holy Days are, but when it’s you turn, may you be blessed.
That’s so nice of you,thank you MR-ours are spread all year around but the main ones are in Oct-Nov:-)
So you just finished up. Hope you have fond memories.
Yes it was great fun and as always we have made wonderful memories:-)
Atreyee, I love the honeyed lies that dazzle, and I bleed tears. Such powerful, mournful language.
Aww Momo,thank you my friend-you have no idea what it means for me to have such wonderfully talented writers like you,Val,Steph,Kymm etal, leaving such encouraging comments on my piece-am on cloud 9-better than any prize I could ever win:-)
I know the feeling, Atreyee, and you are in that list of wonderfully talented writers whose feedback means the world to me. 🙂
Aww Momo,you are too kind-thank you:-)
This is smoking hot good, my friend. Your word choice conjured up some very powerful images! Simply awesome work!!
Aww Val,you just made my day!Am thrilled that you think it is good -hopefully as days go by I will be able to hone my skills enough to make my mark:-)
Lots of very evocative imagery on display all theoughout this piece. Strong emotional writing, Atreyee!
Thank you Tom-am learning from the best here and hope to become more skilled as time goes by:-)
Excellent how you used these three words to portray a story… I didn’t even want to attempt it… Diane
Thank you Diane-am so happy that it came across-as you know,this is not my area of expertise-am trying to break the mould I have set myself in & learning:-)Funny you said that-my initial reaction was the same but then it just came to me -am sure you could have also given those words a new spin,had you tried but never mind,Monday is almost here and we get to walk on anew path again:-)
I really love how you wove the words together. “I bleed tears” That is so powerful.
Thank you so much dear Donetta:-)Am trying to go out of my comfort zone and approach the topics a little differently-glad you liked it:-)
A brilliant take !! Just lovely 🙂
Aww,thank you so much Jyotsna:-)
Sadness that stings. wonderfullly penned.
Thank you dear Bjorn:-)
Powerful and descriptive writing in such a few words. Nice work! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you dear Renada:-)
“The sword of reality cuts deep” <——– Love this image!
Atreyee, this is so powerful, dark and sad. Wow! You didn't waste a single word. Lovely, lovely work!
Thank you dear Ivy:-)Been down with a bout of migraine-so am late in responding-will be posting soon:-)
“I bleed tears” – I love this line. It’s so visceral. Great job!
So glad you felt so Christine-many thanks:-)
That last line really got me, Atreyee. Haunting.
Thank you dear friend:-)
Ouch… that hurt! What intense imagery Atreyee!
Aww,so sweet of you to say so-thanks September:-)

Thank you so much Margit:-)
Beautifully written, it touches deeply.
Thank you Indira:-)Am down with a bad bout of migraine-waiting for it to subside before I can tackle anything-so many pending responses and things to write:-(Hope you are doing better than me 😛
Hi dear. Very sorry you are suffering from migraine. I also suffered from it for 30 years then a Dr. in Seven Hills, Visakhapatnam Hospital, completely cured me of that with OmezD-20, and Alprazolam. I can understand how you are feeling. Get well soon, my blessings.
Oh,you did?And it cured you forever?wow!How many doses and duration?Would love to try.Thanks for your wishes-am better today Indira-may I call you Di?:-)
I would love to be called dida also. Omez D- morning one capsule before breakfast and Alprex at bed time . I had sever acidity problem. After eating certain food or anxiety it occurs, so please take care and consult a doctor. Love and hugs.
To be called a Dida is every mother with a daughter’s dream-so is mine ;-)My daughter used to call my mom “nani”-i like that more-maybe if God wills it,I will be blessed in another 10 years-old bones will be able to bear it or not I don’t know,ha!ha!Acidity has been my companion since I conceived 18 years back-i take one antacid everyday-but will def ask my doc-thank you for the info Indira(no Di or Dida),lol!
You know chronic patient are half Doctor and 50 years sickness has made me full Doctor. You can try Robinia Q 10 drops with little water after food.( Homyo.) . Bengali, machh bhaja , begun bhaja khabe na ta ki hoy. tahole aciditio thakbe. You can call me Indirama or anything you like I don’t mind.
So true!Nah,you are not that old -I think I will stick with Indira 😀
