We've spent a lot of time talking about doing different things. It is harder to do than most people think. We get into a rut and just keep going forward the way we always have. Maybe what we've always done just doesn't work any more.
We may just be in need of fresh material. When was the last time you wrote about a picture? I have one waiting for me to write about it; usually I do them the day they are posted. Reminder to self, check Rolling Thunder to see if they have a new picture.
When was the last time you wrote an acrostic? Spell the word down the page and use that letter on each line to start your line. You can actually come up with some pretty interesting stuff doing this. Shall we try one now?
abnormal thoughts
create temporary
realities; beautiful
oxymorons clamor
starkly in attention.
temptuous vixens
itch to wontonly
control our spirits.
Okay, so it is disjointed and doesn't necessarily make a whole lot of sense, but I had fun. Didn't you? If you will read down the first letters, I spelled out acrostic. I think the word and the ideas are supposed to actually have some relationship. Tough!
Give it a shot.
