Challenge Wednesday 17 September

The idea of these challenges is to use the given prompts to create a piece of flash fiction (100-200 words) or a poem (14-20 lines)

As a poet I read a lot of poetry and some more on top. I also find one line taken out of context can lead to a whole new dimension of creativity. The idea of this challenge therefore is to create what comes to mind from lines of poetry.

This week’s lines of poetry are:

• Hung on the lips of every bird the tune – Sonnet by Willa Cather
• The stream weeps passing under concrete – The Day Goes On Forever by Tom Clark
• I’d make the monster that would kill me – The Last Known Sighting of the Mapinguari by Traci Brimhall
