“Just scream! You vent, and the body just feels good after a
good old yell.”
Carol Burnett
Have you
ever screamed? I’m not talking about shouting at someone who doesn’t listen or yelling
an answer in a classroom. I’m referring to the kind of screaming that leaves the
throat raw and the mind tasting of blood. I have—more than once, actually—and
the results have been… mixt.
For today’s
optional prompt, (Rommy and) I invite you to write poetry or prose inspired by what
makes you scream (out of fear,
frustration, joy, anger, etc.).
Please,
add the direct link to your response to Mister Linky. One post per participant.
369 words maximum (excluding title), for prose and for poetry. You may
share old or new pieces of poetry or prose. You may write to the prompt or to a
topic of your choosing. Visit other poets and storytellers. Read their
contributions. Comment on their screaming words.
for next week, Rosemary will invite us to consider “Untitled -19”, a poem
by our regular participant Rajani Radhakrishnan.
