Today’s writing prompt at MindLoveMisery’s Menagerie is Opposing Forces. We must use the following antitheses in our writing:
– whisper and shout
– humid and dry
yet, you whisper them sweetly
— those cruel, ugly words —
that shout at
the tender places of my heart
too often
your hateful ways make me
wish I were deaf
Our love, once sublime
has sublimated like dry ice
on a humid day.
I’ve had boyfriends like that…
Cool painting.
Thankfully I haven’t needed to be in the dating pool for a loooong time.
But we(I) can still write about those memories…

I’d rather eat dirt than go through the dating nonsense again. It does make some good grist for the mill though!
