STORY STARTER
"The door is locked."
Write a story that includes this piece of speech. Consider if the locked door is keeping someone/thing in or out.
I’m Private, Okay?
The door is locked—you can’t get in
No matter how hard you try
Kicking at the door won’t do any good
Nor will using a crowbar to pry.
“Well how,” you ask, “can I get in?”
The answer is actually a mite strange
You gain access by NOT trying or prying—
I know, that makes me sound quite deranged.
But see, the key to unlocking my door
Is to not use manipulation or force
You have to gain my trust before I open to you
You can’t ever push or coerce.
Sometimes it’s a long process, I know
It can take quite a long while
But I promise that once you gain access to my innermost self
It will all become worth your while.
