Hello, Word Artists and Admirers! I had been chatting with Magaly the other day about recent reads and interesting quotes. She told me about My Life as a Goddard Movie by Joanna Walsh. It's an essay about beauty, desire, and revolution inspired by the work of Swedish film maker Jean-Luc Godard. One particular quote seemed very ripe for exploration:
“The most expensive garment you’ll ever own is your own flesh.”
So for this week's optional prompt, I shall be asking you to take some inspiration that quote. As always, prose and poetry are welcome, as is fiction and non-fiction. Just please be sure to keep your pieces to 369 words or fewer, and one post per person.
Next week, we’ll invite you to write about “food as ritual”.
It's a great prompt! But I am getting ready for a quick visit from my dear son and lovely DIL, arriving from Melbourne this evening, so didn't make time to write something for the prompt, and may not be very present here over the next couple of days. If necessary, I'll catch up during the week!
