WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a story where the protagonist begins to lose their sense of taste.
This is a real condition called ageusia. Try to imagine creatively how someone with this condition would feel whilst eating food.
Taste
My words fall out of my mouth.
They fall into the boiling soup bowl
beneath my chin.
Taste
teh-ay-st
I lift the wobbling spoon.
My tongue dies
as the little bumps on it
pop, pop, pop.
