This
meme was started by Delores a long time ago. Computer issues led her
to bow out for a while. The meme was too much fun to let go, and now
Words for Wednesday is provided by a number of people and has become a
movable feast.
Essentially
the aim is to encourage us to write. Each week we are given a choice
of prompts: which can be words, phrases, music or an image. What we
do with those prompts is up to us: a short story, prose, a song, a
poem, or treating them with ignore... We can use some or all of the
prompts, and mixing and matching is encouraged.
Some
of us put our creation in comments on the post, and others post on
their own blog. I would really like it if as many people as possible
joined into this fun meme, which includes cheering on the other participants. If you are posting on your own blog - let me know so that I, and other participants, can come along and applaud.
Huge thanks to River for providing the prompts last month. The prompts will be here again this month and are provided by Sean Jeating.
This week's prompts are:
- desert,
- dream,
- machos,
- planet,
- treatment,
- bags,
- behind,
- four,
- infinity,
- walk
Charlotte (MotherOwl) has given us Pebble Grey as the colour of the month. If you can also incorporate it into your stories she (and I) will be grateful.
Have fun.
machos?
ReplyDeleteI will have to look that up unless you mean nachos.
Here is mine, interesting, all words used. This free verse was in my head for a while. Thanks EC!

A walk in the desert
Four planets overhead
The corpses of the machos
Left behind
All was now
Pebble grey
Sky moon desert
Her feet her very skin
She tossed off
The remaining bags
Of foul food
Unneeded.
Infinity lay ahead
Not too far now
This planet was done
With mistreatment.

I'm looking forward to the rest of submissions.
