Challenge
The ghost within me
Imagine a young child who seems to be remembering a previous life - describing places they have never been, people they have never met, sometimes using words or phrases that seem beyond their vocabulary.
Write their story.
I remember Pacov
there is war
a mortar embed itself
in our house unexploded
earth seeps blood
ground screams in fear
so many have fallen
running for their lives
without success
cows mooing
time for milking
udder full dangling
water from the well
deep and cold
bread baking
warm slices slathered
fresh lard thick chewy
another bomb blast
