I'm not sure how long I've been in this bowl. Remembering is hard for me. All the things I've lived and imagined swirl around in my mind and it can be difficult to parse out what has happened and what I merely dreamed.
I do believe I spent a moment in a plastic bag being jostled by a clumsy child. And for a lifetime I was chased by a vengeful man named Ahab when I lived on the open seas. Or perhaps someone read that one to me. Memories, dreams, books, movies. All the same in my mind.
I suppose I'm ready for retirement now. I have heard rumors that they'll let me swim down the toilet and see where it leads if I stay very still for long enough. I think I shall.
Maybe tomorrow. Yes. Tomorrow indeed.
I looked at this prompt and I did not like it. Nope, nope, nope. I looked around for something else to write because I seriously wasn't feeling it. But then I gave it a try anyway and I came up with something. And I realised that the prompts that don't automatically inspire stories are the ones that are training you to be more creative. So, I'll keep that in mind next time.
But anyway, head on over here for the details and prompt to write your own freewrite today.
