TO ALL ENLISTED : CREATIVE WRITING PROMPT :

MEET-UP WITH AN OLD FRIEND IN I.T.:) 

I WAS STANDING, PISSED OFF, IN THE SAME DIVISION, WHERE I HAD TO CREATE SOME LEGAL DOCUMENTS, ABOUT THE RECOMMENDED SEXUAL MONOGAMY AGREEMENTS, FOR NATO'S ENLISTED. 

I JUST HAD MY ARSE CHEWED OUT, AS I SUBMITTED THE MARRIAGE LICENSE FORM, ONLY, FOR THOSE SEXUAL MONOGAMY AGREEMENTS. 

"WHAT ABOUT THE GAYS???" 

"THEY CAN JUST USE THE SAME FORMS," I REPLIED.

"JUST MAKE IT ALL GENDER-NEUTRAL."

"INSTEAD OF "BRIDE," OR "GROOM," USE THE PHRASE "MARRIAGE APLICANT A, AND MARRIAGE APPLICANT B," I INSTRUCTED THE ADMIRALS' LEGAL DIVISION. 

MY OLD FRIEND, FROM I.T., CAME BY, WEARING A TIE-DYED, HAWAIIAN TEE SHIRT, WITH A CHEECH AND CHONG DESIGN, SURF SHORTS, TO HUG ME, AS I EXPLAINED WHAT ENSUED, AFTER I TRIED TO LEGALIZE GAY MARRIAGES, IN ALL NATO BASES.

*************************

HIS LOCS/DREADLOCKS, OR JATA, SMELLED LIKE VANILLA, AND PATCHOULI OIL.

I WIPED THE TEARS FROM MY EYES, AND SAT DOWN, SHAKILY, RESTING MY HAND ON MY PREGNANT BELLY.

LAST NIGHT, WE HAD ADDED AN INCH, OF METALLIC SILVER DYE, TO HIS LOCS, FOR HIS HAND FASTING CEREMONY WITH ONE OF OUR GAY, SEAL MEDICS.

TONIGHT, WE PLANNED TO FINISH IT UP, GO ALL THE WAY TO THE ROOTS.

THE SILVER, DIGITAL, CAMOUFLAGE PRINT, HAIR DYE LOOK WAS ANOTHER POSSIBILITY TOO.
