Day 3 #NaPoWriMo #writing

Prose poetry 💜💜

Not sure if it’s correct but I gave it a try!!

“… our prompt for the day – optional, as always. Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a surreal prose poem. For inspiration, check out Franz Kafka’s collection of short parables (my favorite is “The Green Dragon”).”

Happy writing!

Creatures

‘Striking stones never made any fire, flames or friction’.

She sat barefoot in the dark wearing only a broken cotton dress and the air around her body. You wouldn’t describe it as a cold room but you wouldn’t say it felt warm either. I wasn’t a bystander but I wasn’t a hero or a victim. I slipped under the rocks something that could break us free or cause further anguish. I looked up at the gaps and tiny feet walked by, they told us creatures live around here but I’ve been inside so long I don’t know what to believe. The scratching and the scraping continues, I sit and wait.
