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.
