Challenge
Monthly Stream of Consciousness Challenge for March.
You've walked in from work. You're burned out, and at the end of your wits. The job is taking its toll on your sleep, your relationship, your quality of life. By your window that fronts the city sits your typewriter and a blank page. You must write, because if you don't, the job will have all of you. Give it to us. Winner is decided by likes, and will receive a crisp $10.00
From job to Home
The cumbersome weight of the daily strife, troubles my sleep, my relationships, my quality of life, my health. Slowly but steadily, it shrinks my energy fast, I go from a hundred percent to ten.
Work is taking its toll on me, physically, mentally wearing me out. I'm burnt.
Beside the window, my typewriter awaits, a blank page returns my gaze.
If I don't write the job will consume me whole, so for but a brief time today evening, the letters become my embrace.
I take a deep breath to let the stress melt away, as I freely create, words then form sentences that rhyme - in a word, the poetry flows.
My creativity oozes out from within my mind and takes shape, then once again I remember I am more than just my job or my title at the workplace.
