DAILY PROMPT
Write a new post in response to today’s one-word prompt
Her face is a mask
painted on
with a shaking hand
her heart pumps wine, not blood
the years
have not been kind
to her.
Bitter and mean
youth has left her
a graceless cadaver.
She coughs and she hacks
a cigarette in her hand
she’s used up and spent
twisted and bent
waiting for life
to knock on her door
again.
WOW Wow wow–this is too good.
