Hello,
Today I will share the poetry prompt of the day (which you can use or completely ignore - it's YOUR poetry!) from NaPoWriMo on my posts.
Going forward, you will be able to find the daily prompts either in my Starlit Poetry Group, under the Groups page, where we can talk freely about poetry and the writing process together, or on NaPoWriMo's page, https://www.napowrimo.net/
Here's their first prompt!
Happy April Fools!
Sometimes, writing poetry is a matter of getting outside of your own head, and learning to see the world in a new way. To an extent, you have to “derange” yourself – make the world strange, and see it as a stranger might. To help you do that, I’d like to challenge you to write a poem inspired by this animated version of “Seductive Fantasy” by Sun Ra and his Arkestra. If you don’t feel after watching it a little bit like the top of your head’s been taken off, and your thoughts given a good stir – well, maybe you are already living in a state of heightened poetic awareness!
Happy writing, everyone!
