WRITING OBSTACLE
Submitted by Maranda Quinn
Show a powerful emotion – love, grief, rage - in a quiet, everyday moment.
Instead of writing a dramatic and drawn out scene, think about how subtle actions and sensory details can carry the weight of the feeling.

Hole in the Wall
“he got talking
with my last guy
saying i was
controlling”
she laughs like
it’s nothing because
it doesn’t hurt her
but she didn’t see
the way i imagined
breaking every bone
in each of
their bodies
including their spineless
back and
brainless skulls
“you’re like
the least controlling
person i know”
you’re the
most loving person
i know
“exactly, but it’s
no big deal,
i’m over both of
them anyways”
if only you saw
the hole
in my bedroom wall
