Saint Yourself Into an Obscure Deity—More Twitter Prompts from a Slacker
Still have not finished what I need to work on, and I am even having difficulty coming up with synonyms. My head is a TV with a dangling bunny ear antennae…all static and snow. I hope the rest of you are more productive.
If I were a patron saint, it would have to be of blank pages/screens and a nervously tapping foot. This next prompt is provided by @sharksandpoems on Twitter:
For this prompt, choose something small and specific or mundane. Let others be the saints of thunder and death, rebirth, truth and light. Be the patron saint of petrichor, of Vicks Vapor Rub, of the small bowl of extra pennies at a gas station.
Or elevate yourself to full-on deity, but be petty: god of the well, actually or goddess of the smirk-at-your-pandemic-pajamas-on-Zoom. Or be useful and unassuming: be the god of a lens wipe, goddess of the paper clip, the deity of the Forever stamp.
Or make yourself a nature divinity, one of a specific rock formation or tree branch or curve in a river.
