Monday Poetry Prompt: Distilled

 

moonshine-232643_640.jpg

This week let’s write a distilled poem, one that’s simple and unadulterated. Post your pure result below.

For any poets that live within an easy drive of the Raleigh-Durham International Airport, I’ll be hosting a Germination Workshop on Sunday January 27th at 2pm. We’ll write to as many prompts as we can over two hours. In past germination workshops, I’ve twice gotten the start to a poem that would later be published. For more details and to join us, you’ll need to be a member of the Living Poetry Meetup group. Both joining the group and the workshop are free.
