in the corner – #SoCS

Give me a round room.

Better yet,
A room with no walls.

Just nothing with corners.

Corners mean shame
Corners mean nowhere to turn
Corners mean
You
Have
The
Advantage

And I’m done with that.

I am no longer the hunted
But I will not become the hunter

Let’s just lay down
Our weapons

Our Warheads and Words

And go Home.

The prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “in the corner.” Write about whatever the image or thought of “in the corner” brings to mind.

#SoCS comes from the website of Linda G. Hill.

Here are the rules:

1. Your post must be stream of consciousness writing, meaning no editing (typos can be fixed), and minimal planning on what you’re going to write.

2. Your post can be as long or as short as you want it to be. One sentence – one thousand words. Fact, fiction, poetry – it doesn’t matter. Just let the words carry you along until you’re ready to stop.
