Yesterday, I ran an impromptu poetry workshop with people who couldn’t really say no. The exercise was a list of five monsters and mythical creatures and a list of five daily tasks.
Here are some possible prompts taken from those lists:
Medusa washing her “hair”
Cyclops getting an eye exam
Minotaur stuck in traffic
Grendel eating a midnight snack
Siren talking to a telemarketer
A Fury filling out tax forms
Centaur buying apples at a farmer’s market
Office poltergeist shredding receipts
Big Foot taking pet to the groomers
Demons sharing work gossip
Here is your sample poem (written by my supervisor):
