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.
