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.
Body On The Ground
A field of peonies,
Blossom across the floor,
The liquid of life,
So vital and yet so abundant,
It continues to pour across the ground,
Forming intricate puddles,
As the man looks to the sky,
Eternally studying the stars,
For he cannot close his eyes,
Because his blood paints the floor,
A murderous red,
And even when looking to the stars,
All he can see,
Is death.
