Challenge
Monthly Fiction Challenge for March.
Write a story about nothing, about going through a day where nothing extraordinary happens, but make us feel. Humane, evil, humorous, sad, satirical: Just make us feel. Winner is decided by likes, and will receive a crisp $10.00 -Show the method in monotony.
not even a story made
to convey the story of Nothing
is to make us feel the utter vacuum
more than the blank page there
not everyone opens a cover sheet
and has pull, to mark on it
best left as is, left to walk away
empty, yet holding close the notion
of not having, made a mistake
the retreat of being safe
eventually someone comes, forgets
the unwritten law and order
that Nothing begets nothing,
and all is quiet...
In comes an implement, intent
and finding space, makes it comfortable
for stains, smudges, tears, erasures
a workspace for the everyday
where Nothing happens,
like an antelope, here
in the landscape
hunted and
escaped
