Poetry Prompt #2 - Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf


What are you afraid of?

A childhood experience?
Something that happened to you more recently?
A person? Illness? Being alone?

Write about something you fear, something that "haunts" you, something you'd like to forget but can't. Take your personal "big bad wolf" by the tail, swing it through the air, then toss it over your shoulder in a poem.

Examples:

  1. Attack

    The garage
    had claws
    shattered mirrors
    oil rags
    tattered magazines
    car parts

    The lock was loose
    but the little boy was trapped
    trapped
    with vultures
    and a toy
    chainsaw
