Poetry Prompts from Profiles—More Twitter Blessings
So I fell in love with the quote below, so much that I immediately followed the person and asked if I could use it for a prompt, so here we go.
For the first prompt, use the phrase “new liver, same eagles” as a ghostline. You probably don’t need to use “After My Sweet Baboo Redux or After @babsben unless you really want to.
For the next prompt, take a popular myth or fairytale and rewrite it in modern language or a very specific vernacular and setting, different from the original. Imagine Artemis being caught skinny-dipping on the first day of deer hunting season in Indiana, or the Princess and the Pea retold by a British tabloid.
For the final prompt, create a story or poem that embodies the mood of “new liver, same eagles” or make your own phrase that sums up the last year or, realistically, 2016 until probably 2022.
Bonus prompt: write an ekphrastic for this photo.
