and was amazed on the insight and the journeys. I found so many interesting perspectives in your words, your poems! Impressive...
I do hope though that when you post your poems today, you will try to visit at least seven poets and leave comments. I found a lot of sites, with no comments at all.
When I was a kid, early Sunday mornings before we left for church. My brother n' I would watch this cartoon called The Rocky and Bullwinkle Hour. Rocky was a squirrel and Bullwinkle a moose...for those of you who don't know. My favorite part of this show was this cartoon segment called Fractured Fairy Tales. Here is a clip:

You could pen a poem inspired by a fable, instead. If you up for a challenge, pen both!
The Tortoise and the Hareby =splgum
I find it fascinating what movies are made, that surround our world events. We are using fantasy, fairy tales and comics, these days. You do not have to go dark. Comedy, for the most part is the charm of the cartoon mentioned. Maybe you will blend all three facets?
If you aren't into fairy tales, perhaps you would like to fracture a fable. The choice is yours...
Hee hee, the film made me chuckle.....great prompt, kiddo. Will see what I can do. It should be easy, with my fractured mind, to manage a fractured fairy tale. At my age, there are no other kinds!!!!
ReplyDeleteAfter a while I felt sorry for the fox, poor guy

ReplyDeleteI love this prompt.It set my mind in many directions. I have posted one poem, but I hope to be back with a second.
Thank you Ella for your great imagination and for keeping this Thursday Prompt alive:)
Eileen...
happy to be here guys!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if mine is a poem that reads like a story or a story that reads like a poem... Either way, it's pretty 'fractured'. :)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your fractured contributions ;D
ReplyDeleteMine is about dragons and fairies, castles and kings, not sure how fractured it is mind you Ella. LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat prompt, thanks. I also felt sorry for the poor fox! It reminded me of the Wolf in The Road Runner cartoons...'Beep beep'
LOL
