Prompt
“I’m not doing it to be loved, I’m doing it to BE love.” – Holly Troy
On Writing
Breathe the sentence in. Exhale the sentence. Inhale and exhale each word. Now inhale and exhale the sentence. Then, go!
There is only one rule, keep your hand moving.
Don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation. If you feel stuck, keep writing anyway. Try going back to the prompt and write it out until other words arise, then write those—or, repeat the last word you wrote again and again until new words appear—or, write, “I am stuck,” or “I can’t think of anything,” as long as you keep your hand moving. Writing is physical, the words will move through your body and come out of your hand—just keep it moving.
Now go – for five, ten, fifteen minutes . .

Yes I always get excited when some of my favorite poets are mentioned Whitman and Emily D. I have a first edition of leaves of Grass and I loved my visit to Emily’s museum in Amhurst while finishing my first degree in human services, Thank you for mentioning Them.
