Yes, I am posting another gorgeous poem by Victoria Chang, one that the Litbowl account rightly notes builds to an epic last line. Ooof.
For the first prompt, write your own (or a character’s) changing aspirations through the stages of life.
The second prompt is to make the landscape an active participant, providing plants or doors or street signs with sentience and agency in your poem, story or essay.
The third is to use “Bells have begun to notice me” for a ghostline, erasing the line after finishing your poem or story and crediting the poet.
For the last, write a poem or story using the following list of words: “passing,” “romance,” “bearable,” “frightened,” “question,” “noises,” “daytime,” “bells” and “notice.”
Bonus prompt: write whatever this photograph inspires or write a poem or story that gives an individual voice to each of these bells.
Good luck writing! Have fun!
