2023 November PAD Chapbook Challenge: Day 11
This has been an odd week at the Brewer household. We started off with a bunch of healthy Brewers, and then three out of five got sick. Everyone appears to be getting better, but it was not a normal week at all. Sooooo…
For today’s prompt, write an odd poem. The poem could be about something outside the ordinary (or odd). Of course, today is the 11th, and 11 is an odd number. So there’s another odd possibility for your poem…to write about odd numbers. But, you know, I’ll probably accept about any odd ideas you might have today (or any day really).
Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them.
