The Object Of My Affection


Prompt:
Describe the objects to us in detail. Use sensory imagery. Think about line breaks, if you are using poetry. Even if you are writing in paragraph form, you will be essentially writing a PROSE POEM, which is a poem written in...you guessed it...prose. So it still needs that rich detail and sensory imagery. You do not need to tell us that you “love” this object. SHOW US. Show us that you care for it through imagery and gesture--perhaps it’s a photo, displayed where you can see it from your bed so you have sweet dreams. Or perhaps it’s crammed in a drawer somewhere, because it makes you shake with stress whenever you see it.
