kitchen

continuing my abc series...

PLEASE READ THE DIRECTIONS!

prompt: kitchen

it doesn't have to be about a kitchen, that is just the prompt, where can you take that.

I'd rather not see that word in the poem or in the title.

Poetry, not prose - but if you can play with form and make me like it, go for it.

No rhyme.
No pictures.
Plain backgrounds.
Left align.

Please don't reserve spots. This contest will be open for a bit to give you enough time.

    Until I'm able to write again, do you mind if I just post "prewrites"? I have written over 15,000+ poems in the 15+ years I've been writing "poetry", and I have a poem for almost (the father one is why I say "almost") any prompt that anyone could give.

    If not, I won't. I'll just wait 'til I'm able to write something again. I don't have "writer's block" (I don't believe most even know what that term means) or anything, but, it should come naturally, and shouldn't be forced.

    I may just drag Chase in here. The kitchen is our element.

    Actually, I have a poem on my author page that is actually based on something that's real. It's me washing dishes, and thinking of a girl. It's short, and quaint, and not "wordy".

    I was thinking the same thing...about what could happen in the kitchen, but may not be appropriate for the contest(lol). It would turn into a story for me and would be hotter than anything cooked on the stove (or would try to make it that way-lol). Hope you get many entries and good luck to all!
