STORY STARTER

Inspired by Abilienne E. Thorne

Write a story from the perspective of someone who is being forced to apologise for something. How do they react?

Do they respond with sarcasm, indifference, outrage, or do they try to convince their accusers of their innocence?

The Body And The Blood

Close your eyes! Apologize! Get on your knees! Recant your deeds! Dear God above But it was for love That I was on my knees Forgive me please Close your eyes! Apologize! For what you wore, Through church doors! Dear God, I’m sorry That I have a body But it’s all your preachers Who stare like creepers Close your eyes! Apologize! If it’s not sincere, God will hear! Dear God- I try But my focus goes From scouring my brain, For all the things I’ve done wrong To deciding what I should eat when I’m home. I know the powerful, wrathful God Might take offense to what I’ve done So my eyes open, to face consequences But guess what, Nothing happens.
