Oct. 15 Prompts: Carving Scary Faces

OctPoWriMo 2023:Facing Our Fears

Fear of Norms: Write a poem from the POV of a monster or your jack-o-lantern. What specifically does the monster fear?

You may want to write it as a Bop. Here’s a bop I wrote for OctPoWriMo 2019:

Crossing the threshold

Inside
Flannel pajamas
covered in blankets
heating pad on my belly
alone in thoughtful silence
imagining a better world
Need a push to cross the threshold

Outside
People, places, things
aspirations and collaborations,
beauty, love fresh and new
expectations, disappointments,
together in thoughtful silence
peppered with communication
that can be misunderstood
Need a push to cross the threshold

Inside Out
Comfort or  adventure
alone together
creating more existence
forming bonds
entering or exiting
Need a push to cross the threshold

Today’s image prompt is another super-creepy gif. What is that thing? Where did it come from? What would you do if you were in that car?

I really enjoy carving Jack-o-lanterns. I also really like the wire jack-o-lantern filter I made, so today should be a lot of fun.
