STORY STARTER
Submitted by an anonymous user
Write a short story based in an idealistic suburban neighbourhood.
Try and put a spin on the usual suburban trope.
Suburban Utopia
Trimmed bushes. Perfectly manicured lawns. Clean painted siding.
Suburban utopia.
A place I call my home. My home: it is my home.
What is a home?
A pretty little house? A family unit? Friends and nice neighbors?
Perhaps.
Perhaps it can be. But not mine.
My home is where I learned to fly. It’s the place I flew from— A nest left behind.
This suburban utopia Was a cage whose bars I broke.
