WRITING OBSTACLE
Submitted by Bernard Wicks
Write a poem or story that reads as if it is beautiful, but is actually about something rather tragic.
For example, you might write about a beautiful sunset in an apocalyptic world, or a poem about the good things about heartbreak.
Nuzzle
If it’s just one time
One cat
In a cardboard box
In a dark alleyway
It can scare humans
It can scare creatures
Innate, concentrate
In concrete desolate
But, Heaven sent chance
An invite to dance
To watch a cat prance,
Nuzzle, for its happy
Watch it close its eyes and blink
For it is safe
It is happy
But for every cat in an alley
In a box
In pain
There are a million who watch
Watch, and avoid the strain
