WRITING OBSTACLE

Submitted by Maranda Quinn

Show a powerful emotion – love, grief, rage - in a quiet, everyday moment.

Instead of writing a dramatic and drawn out scene, think about how subtle actions and sensory details can carry the weight of the feeling.

Fantastic Prompt, Thanks

An emotions moves us

To cause and an action


Tell the butterfly to stuff

Its self and curb


A reaction


Because to insist and insinuate

A new thing that we create


Is to say that we’ve dried and worn the

Conventions of our old palate


My emotion


Is a stubborn, old

Bull chasing red


Rage and grief and sadness

Happiness, joy


We hold on to until we’re dead


Because the idiot and the scholar

One of which is well read


Will tell us that we live because

We dream the same in different beds


My emotions is an elder witch

Brewing potions in a cauldron


Who curses the rain


My emotion is an old dog

Cuddled on my/your lap


That we’d bawl with


My emotion is a ceremony

Celebration and a thanks


An appreciation of the very reason

You/and I would ever create,


So thank you, to the prompt,

The creator, and this app,

Thank you to who created

You, this or that,


Thank you to the reason why the way I

Feel the way I do

Thank you to the reason

Compassion isn’t lost

Between me or you


The rain will ask again,

Leave a knock upon your roof

Tell it your alive

By the emotion that you choose.
