WRITING OBSTACLE

Submitted by Bernard Wicks

Write a poem or story that reads as if it is beautiful, but is actually about something rather tragic.

For example, you might write about a beautiful sunset in an apocalyptic world, or a poem about the good things about heartbreak.

A Flower in a Dying World

I stand on a cliff of a dying land


But I look down, and a rose makes a stand


It has spiky, oval leaves, looking like a hand


But then I wonder, how could such a perfect thing be in a dying land?
