FF – Magic Stoner Donkeyland
Here is my story for Friday Fictioneers, hosted by Rochelle. The photo was contributed by J. Hardy Carroll.
It’s all a bit mad and has a beginning, a middle and an end (purely because I put “The End” at the end). It sort of starts with the photo, takes a bit of a left turn in the middle and then shoots off at a tangent at the end 🙂 .
Warning – may contain drug references!

“Look! Puff the Magic Donkey.”
“Surely it’s ‘Puff the Magic Dragon’?”
“I can’t draw dragons. But he’s still magic. Look!”
The donkey leapt from the page and appeared on the pavement! His eyes were wide and unfocussed and he appeared a trifle unsteady on his hooves.
“Hi, Puff.”
Puff coughed a cloud of sweet-smelling smoke. “Dude,” he hee-hawed, wandering dazedly out into traffic.
Meanwhile, in Magic Donkeyland HQ, Stoner-General Donkey awaited news from his invasion scout, Stoner-Corporal Puff – a report fated never to arrive, after stoned-out-of-his-brain Puff’s close encounter with the Number 19 bus from Islington.
Invasion aborted!
The End.
Speak to me - I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Dear Ali,
Duuuude. Never hire a stoner for an important mission. Pass the potato crisps, please.
Shalom,

Dear Rochelle,
That would have been a good idea, but I fear none of the donkeys in Magical Stoner Donkeyland are “all there” 🙂

It seems the invasion’s been prevented by a good old No.19 Islington bus – intentionally or otherwise. Love the idea of a stoned donkey and the choice of name is perfect! Lol!

I’m sure the driver didn’t deliberately run over the poor little donkey… 🙂
