Smoke lingers
and curls like the ghost
of a belly dancer.

This is memorable.
From a smoker.
i love the way smoke twirls in the air. i love the way its shadow is blue and its reaqlity is brown. i love smoke rings and the way the smoke always attracts to the non smoker. not seen so often now since the smoking ban, obviously.
the best three lines ive ever read about smoke!!!
Concise, effective, evocative - all in all excellent.
Titus - Thanks. It's quite bold to just put up one image conjured, considering I have a picture, it would work just as well without it.
I thought of adding 'Egyptian bellydancer' or something but there really is no need.
brokendown - Aye smoke does have it's qualities, that ethereal, vanishing quality; like people. As simic said - people made of smoke.
Jim - Cheers. A cheeky wee image/observation.
I don't want to quit smoking
Words don't dissipate, like smoke, as shadows in the dark.
Things are appearing and disappearing again, aren't they?
Yes, you're right Titus, when I realise what I've posted is shite, I take it down.
Amazed it's not a blank blog.
I liked the start of the wooden spoon one.
Never bothers me.
