LIVE #THEPUSH MICRO STORIES FROM TWITTER
Here are the latest ‘thepush’ very short stories live from twitter. Twitter hastag: #thepush (some tweets below may not be poems)
He's always managed it with razors, but now he's getting through three a day just to keep it vaguely under control. That isn't really the issue though. He'd take all the extra hair going if it could just be limited to that. The horns are a new hell. #vss #ThePush #AStoryADay
Listen my Tweethearts...if you have a boss, friend, co-worker, or a significant other who is not pushing you to be your best then reevaluate the relationship. I don’t want to be with people who allow me to be mediocre. Iron Sharpens Iron. #ThePush #GoodtoGreat #LevelUp ❤️💪🏽✅⭐️
Today's #vss theme for #ThePush from me and @goosefat101 is'razor'. Because this morning we've mostly been talking about a certain advertising campaign...
I consider looking at what day has in store first, but the computer's normally right. I push the morning's scroll into the feed and hit 'autocorrect'. Whatever else it changes, at least I shouldn't break anything today. #vss #ThePush #AStoryADay

He visited again. She knitted while they talked. 'That murder, a woman was seen leaving the house'. She didn't start or seem concerned, nodded, counting stitches. The ploy had failed. He felt so tired. She poured him another cup as they chatted on about other things #ThePush
The virus was in the stitches. It was too late by the time they figured it out: millions of wounds had already healed and the effects were irreversible. There isn't anyone who visited A&E that evening who doesn't now have horns. #vss #ThePush #AStoryADay
