It’s writing time, friends!

It’s Monday again. Wow, that seems to happen about every week or so…which means another writing prompt! Yeah!

Writing Prompt #2 – Parts

Let’s consider the concept of parts and the concept of things in wholeness. For instance, think of a flower, say, jasmine. I adore jasmine. I like everything about it: the way it blooms at night, the tone of pink underlying its white color, the way it smells warm almost to the point of being overly heady in its perfume. I like the whole jasmine. But let’s go ahead and pull the flower apart. What’s the part of the entire experience of “jasmine” that I enjoy the most? Is it the softness of the petals? The strong, spindly stems?

Pick a concept/thing/being you love or a least like (ie: Magic markers, a beautiful woman, your first apartment, cocaine) and break it down into parts. And while you may truly dig all the parts, just pick one part to focus on, the one part that when you pull it up and out of the whole it makes you go “ah”, makes you feel a little zap in your brain or gut or heart or junk.

Have that part? Good. Now write about it in a form of worship and love and adoration. Put that part on a pedestal. Decorate it with laurels and ribbon. Write about why it’s the part that makes the whole something more, something amazing. Praise the cherry on top and write about why, without that cherry, it wouldn’t be a whole dessert.

Good writing.
