Our goal is to provide you with a prompt every day from which you are to garner inspiration and submit a poem. How to submit will be very easy. Just put your poem or short story in the comments section and hit post. You may not immediately see your post, but it is there under the "Comments" section. You may need to click on "Comments" to see your poem. It is there on another page.
You may need to have a Gmail account to post in the comments section. Most of you do have Gmail, but for those of you that don't it's extremely worthwhile to open up one now! That way you've got a chance to get your work out there in the world.
Today's poem or short story prompt is the word " trust"
ON HER BLUE COUCH
ReplyDeletethis came up year after year
in discussion after discussion:
"what do you think you would do that's so terrible?"
and
"why don't you trust yourself?"
i liked standing in the kitchen
it meant we were going to go somewhere soon
i fidgeted when i sat on her blue couch
because it meant we were going to talk
and that the question might come up
again
