The Weekly Writing Prompt
It's time again for me to tackle the above picture and the below words. This week was a challenge so I thought I'd write a poem. I'm not one who writes much poetry (as you may find out...), but it was fun and I do these weekly writing prompts because they're first and foremost fun.
Here are the rules:
1) Use the photo and the 5 words provided in your story.
2) Keep your word count 500 words or less.
3) You have until next Tuesday at midnight to link up your post.
4) Go to these sites: HERE and HERE. Add your blog post via the inLinkz linky on the site.
5) Have fun, don’t stress, let those creative juices flow.

A Bitter Sun...A Hazy Sky
A hazy sky mocks me--forces me to ask myself the questions I fear. Should I run? Should I fight? Should I lay down my head on a carpet of grass? Feel nature on my skin? I search the depths of my soul for answers that do not come, a definition of understanding in a void of black.
The bitter sun fights to be seen. I crave its rays like a sponge--they fill me, I answer their call. The humidity tries to engulf me and shroud me with a wardrobe of mist. But I resist. And I win.
I must now eat pudding.
