Weekend Quickie Prose

Hi All!

 

I won gold right here : http://allpoetry.com/poem/5762035

And I am paying it forward

 

I am in the mood to read some prose but I can not think of a prompt soo...

write whatever kind of prose that you would like! Please make it under 400 lines!  

 

I want something that will inspire me to write more prose. If you can do that with sadness, do it...if you can do it by romance..do it.

 

There aren't very many rules except these:

1. I don't want poems on cutting. Use metaphor to describe cutting if you must talk about it.

2. I don't want erotica. I want to picture everything without very many details.

3. If you use a picture, please give credit in your author notes.

 

I will be judging this on Monday-Tuesday. While I want prose and something unique, I want to understand it at the same time. I want to cry tears of joy or sadness. I hope that someone is able to pull this off and whoever does, is asked to pay it forward!

 

Prizes may or may not increase.Feel free to reserve but please be done with it by Sunday night.

  5. a cliche type of poem.
    sometimes i'll walk the school halls like every-things fine; i'll pretend just another day and things will be ok. how many times have i convinced myself that? a lot of times. and not once did things end up fine, only worse.
