Waning Gibbous



Waning Gibbous Moon and The Moon Phases.  

   The waning gibbous moon happens when the moon is between a 90 and 135 degree angle with respect to the Earth and Sun. So we are seeing more than half of the moon illuminated and less than half in shadow.


Waynan Gibbous read it,  but not believing. But, damned if it weren't right there, in writing, and the reality struck him like a 200 mph fastball. Chin music, that he didn't see coming, 

 

        Mama...?

I must say, that sounded fast.

      You didn't see it?

Not for a second, Son.

       Nor did I.

I'm sorry.

      For what, Doc? I feel fine.

That's fleeting.

     ...dodged a bullet

Define 'dodge'.

        Well, I took it didn't I?

You took a bullet? Why, Yes, you did.

        ..realizing something....

And what's that realization tell you?

            I'm dead?

Just about...hanging by a thread.

            So I got a chance?

Nay. I brought the scissors, Son.

            'Nay' as in 'no' ?

I'm poised...

        For?

...your last breath.

        Hahaha...well then fuck you, I ain't takin it!

I got all night,

        Did you bring 'snacks'?

I'd appreciate some urgency. I've got an excellent scotch awaiting...

        'Awaiting', is it? Well, then, it's a got to 'await' !

I'd rather not...

        You're a twat.

Do you really want to go out a 'vulgar bastard'?

        Who says I'm going anywhere?

I'm here to tell you, son ...

                                            ( SFX: scissors - Snip)
