My writing life has taken a dip, and I really needed a spark. So, this past weekend, Teach Write had a game night, and I participated. We played with Paint Chip Poetry cards and what fun we had! I have had this in my Amazon cart for quite a while, but for some reason, I have never bought it.
After playing it with writerly friends, I think it has to become mine!
We each chose 12 paint colors from a random color generator, and then used the prompt cards from the game.
In my first poem I used the following colors: forward fushia, gory movie, and spicy red. The prompt card was "heartbreak." I chose to write a haunted haiku with it.
Forward Fushia
with spicy red lips
leaves trails of blood kisses like
a gory movie
