Be Prompt

This is my 10th contest and I never did a prompt contest so I'm doing one now SolitaryTear added points too so you better bring it to get em. Pick from one of the 10 prompts below and be brillient! We'll probably add more HMs too.

1. write a song (no prewrite for this, you gotta write a new song)
2. how it would feel to be a shoe
3. beat words - make a poem that sounds like drums when you read it
4. if you were a Turkey and it was the week before thanksgiving
5. a world where everything is made of glass, even the creatures
6. If you were a pen and you didn't agree with what you were being made to write
7. an ipod that becomes sentient and starts talking to the one listening to it
8. Area 52
9. A day in the life of a breeze
10. Make up a prompt and write it. (no prewrites for this one even if you beg) if you do this one describe the prompt in your AN too

tell me which prompt you choose in your ANs

You are not required to PIF your win points but what else can you do with em, really

Rulez:

      like when you read it it sounds like your playing drums with words but the poems gotta make sense too or you could write a drum poem too, whatever you want. you can make up a prompt and write a poem just put the prompt in your AN. im pretty easy
