Dame Peel came in by way of some parkour onto the balcony. She was sure Steed would have approved. Poor old Steed. Those were some good times. Her catsuit fit a little more loosely now, but she could still survey his shabby and ill-kept apartment with the sharp mind of a scientist. "Nothing really to be done here," she thought, "It will all just crumble to dust eventually."
In the morgue we had no patience with superstition
But at twilight in walked the long dead mortician
A bloody scalpel clamped in each hand
He looked like a phantom or demon
And he smelt like an old merchant seaman
Line up girls he laughed I'm your new beautician.
@great-big-steessaid I seem to have hit "writer's block" and that after just the first word. 😢 July 7th, right?
Maybe just start scattering seeds by jotting down a few elements you'd like to see in a story, or some ridiculous lines of dialogue to be included, maybe do a little bubble-mapping.
Dear Stees, another idea would be to write some sentences based on "superstition," "phantom," and/or "twilight" individually (using the last-word-sentences idea) either just as background scraps to get you going and to prime the pump, or maybe even to be included in the final product. (Sometime in college years I glanced through a book that mentioned acrostics to be found in Shakespeare.)

Thanks for the advice I appreciate your help but I really am having trouble "getting into" it. It's been a couple of years since my last kick at the can and well... 🤔 🙄
