Poetry Prompt: Group effort
Once you become comfortable enough with your own creativity, why not spice up things and work in groups? So grab some of your “pen-friends”, play together and see how can you inspire and help each other become more creative.
Visual stimulation can unleash your imagination in the most exciting ways. You can pick some random picture and each of players has to make a story in the form of poem, inspired by the picture. Afterwards, you can all debate and see whose story is the most interesting or you can take it step further and compile all stories into one: it has to be believable and follow some logical structure. It’s best suited for groups of two, three people. With certain moderation you can use these ideas for your own creativity exercises, as well.
Every lock has a key.
there are ones you have to go
Look for. Search under every rock,
frisk every pocket and empty the tiniest
Drawer.
There are the ones you need to steal in order to enter
that want you to be brave, look fear strait in the eyes and defend
them with your body.
And there are the ones, just in front of your nose, but cleverly disguised,
Ones able to mold themselves to every hole and with one click
Takes you there.
If you listen carefully to jingling no door are closed to you.
