Prompts

LinkedIn provides different categories for their users to like, according to preference. Because writing is a passion of mine,
I have "liked" a lot of their poetry and literature pages, as well as journal pages. I have decided to take the prompts that
these pages give here, and develop them on my site. If you're interested and a member of LinkedIn, I would be more than glad to provide you with these specific pages, you'll get emails with prompts specifically to boost your creative mind!

Write starting with this line from a poem by Alta: “i stand in my own pain & sing my own song…”...



I stand in my own pain and sing my own song. I taste my own tears and hear my own thoughts. I walk the halls alone and sleep alone, but I am not lonely. I listen to your problems and give you advice, but I do not seek the same in you. I am not lonely. I read good books and write about my feelings toward them, but sometimes I can't stand the thought of reading. It is my own thoughts, my own feelings. I have one toothbrush by my sink, I have many notebooks that are my own. I wake up next to a pillow. I am not lonely. Sometimes I search intently for someone to listen, but not many people do. Did you hear me? I said I'm not lonely. 


If you could be anything what would you be, you have the pick of any creature, be it worm or flea 


A computer. It's programmed by humans, but it has a mind of its own, something different than what the human actually wants it to do.
