Pandora’s Sewing Box

This was written in 2017 originally and is now being recycled for Fandango’s Flashback Friday!

Prior to Wilhelmina Williams’ passing, she’d given her daughter, Pandora, an heirloom sewing box. She cautioned her never to open it, for according to legend, doing so would unleash a global, butt-ugly fashion trend.

Pandora gave a rat’s ass for neither fashion, nor butt-ugliness.

Hence, when mom assumed room temperature, Pandora opened the sewing box. Out tumbled a mangled thimble and polyester leisure suits attacked the world.
