Respond to this…
We Write Poems:
So you’re standing on that stage and the lights go down, or come up, or the spot lands on you. Then you have a clear inner sight in response to the director’s prompt, or you don’t and you’re just winging it, or the words just seem to come all of themselves from your mouth. You see, there’s really no “wrong way” to respond to this prompt, except that the invitation was to respond in some immediate and visceral manner. Maybe even surprise ourselves in the process!
The seed for this process and prompt was a single line from a diary. (Please refer back to the original posting for the full prompt.) We hope that perhaps you took this opportunity to respond in a more emotive rather than rational manner. Can we be both writer and audience to our own poems, a process of unexpected self discovery? Your time now to respond.
Don’t have a poem yet? Perhaps read a few done by others here, be inspired. There’s still plenty of time to discover a poem for yourself!
Leave the links to your poems in the comments of this post, then go visit your fellow writers’ sites and read their work. Remember to leave only positive comments in the spirit of sharing and not critiquing. We look forward to reading your poems!
Please remember to include a link with your blog poem post that links right back to here, this “Post Your Poems Day”, so that others reading your poem can also share in this community poem experience – maybe even someone new to We Write Poems!
If you are new to WWP, please be welcome to look around and read. The full prompt description you can find under “Recent Posts” on the top right of our page.
