Reincarnated As Fruit / by Evan La Ruffa

A little writing prompt… if any of you decide to go for it, please do share it with me!

This prompt is about staying concise. A koan maybe, or perhaps just a brain fart.

So here goes…

We’re basically writing two couplets, but we just don’t care about rhyme. Maybe rhythm, but not rhyme.

So, write two lines, followed by two more lines. Only you’ll really only write 3 lines, because the last line will be…

I hope that one time I get to come back as fruit.

For example, here’s mine…

‘Trying to fend off Groundhog’s day, show up and hold it down.

Super lucky, tired, and fairly raw.

Loved in, cooped up, and found.

I hope that one time I get to come back as fruit.’

Have fun.
