WRITING OBSTACLE

Incorporate a famous quote that you like into a short story or poem, but change its context so it means something quite different.

The quote could be from history, a movie, a speech - but try to use it in a way that doesn't relate to its original meaning.

Don’t Dwell On Dreams

They told me to get out of bed

Do something with your life

They said

You can’t just hide


But my imagination runs free

And my bed is so comfy

It would only be crushed by reality

Which isn’t anything like my dreams


And everything outside seems so extreme

I did not want to go and be active

But it does not do well to dwell on dreams

and forget to live
