Devereaux Frazier and Beth Amanda are currently hosting the Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge which was started by our star writer Christine Ray. We hope to offer all of you something that will spark your creativity and willingness to participate.
The prompts are designed to be quick challenges that can be written in 10 to 15minutes, inspire you creatively, are fun, and get everyone interacting. Please post your response to the prompt in the comments below and show your fellow posters some love and support. All members of the Go Dog Go community, including Baristas, are welcome to participate. Feel free to share this post on your own blogs and/or Facebook.
Today’s prompt:
Use the phrase “blurred thoughts” in a poem or piece of prose.
Happy writing!

Chato
Chato wasn’t sure what to expect. He’d heard the legends almost every weekend. His fists curled into themselves, not quite tight, not ripe to make a punch. Through the sheet that separated him from the rest of the living room guests, he heard the women speaking. Some weeping, some whispering like the noise of ninja stars in mid air. Chato thought about Ernesto and his eyes watered a little. Glancing down to find a tee shirt to wipe his face, Ernesto’s acceptance letter to UCLA reproached him. Chato comforted his pain by scrolling through his phone to call Chino and the crew. No answer. Chato looked up the wall and smiled at Ernesto’s awards. The rage flooded him. In between blurred thoughts, he could not understand how he and Ernesto had survived so much and suddenly cancer took down the person who meant the world to him.

Here is my response to the prompt. Whats’ yours?
“Your blurred thought wriggling deep in my sullen mind
making a trail
a dark alley wherever it goes
like a worm through the rotten apple
They say it hurts to be nostalgic
I say, it lights up the deepest crevices of my soul.”

Hello all…
Here’s my response….
Each and every night,
in my somnolent tenderness…
all the blurred thoughts
wandering in the cosmos
find refuge in my mind’s wilderness…..
before perishing into
the unknown nothingness….
Thanks!!!!
