Prompt
“Sleep is a biological necessity, not a crime.” – Justice Sotomayor
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 . .

A poem from the 90s,,,,Miracle, If there be a God or Heaven some day , I fear in doubt , I really wasn’t that good along the way.
But if by chance I make it to the gates, the question might be asked, what miracle did you perform while living on the earth?
I would have to say , my son had my heart from the day of his birth, I did my best without regret.
I would give my life to keep him straight, I wonder if that might open the gate.

Holly I love that you have been writing it is wonderful. One note brought back a memory from the prompt about living in a shed for a 1000,00 a month. My girlfriend and I had a attic , no kitchen just a bed and a few cabinets.

It is amazing what kind of squeezes we sometimes find ourselves in.
