Writing Outside the Lines … Halloween Extra
Look at the picture. Writing Rebels, Halloween is days away … I challenge you to write your spookiest using this picture for inspiration.
The Swing
It was a swamp thing
found deep in the darkest
recesses of the bayou
History…
Mystery…
Lore said it was evil
My Grams did too …
I learned early on
to stay away from
that ‘damned thing’ as
Grams called it
especially during this
time of year when the
whispering was strongest
Even …
When it whispered
to me every day
The Swing called
me by MY NAME
Telling me it was there
waiting…
alone…
lonely…
missing me…
needing me…
to keep it company
to fulfill the prophecy
I dreamed of The Swing
I saw it in my day visions
It wanted me…
my soul…
Would it one day win?
