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.
Todays prompt: Write a poem using the words life, freedom, rights, and regression.

A topical prompt, sadly.
The Right To Life
Our rights die at birth
for pro-lifers.
They were already lost
for the mother
at conception.
And in those post foetal
post natal
moments of freedom
when we move
ourselves
from the womb,
our rights diminish.
They say that life
must be lived
according to
the laws of God,
laws written
and dispatched
to them
in patriarchal dreams
of regression
to an earlier age.
Break those laws
and they’re back
with interest
to make you pay
but only
if you’re female,
the men go free
say the pro-deathers.
