As an example of this week’s prompt, here is the draft I wrote as part of the 30/30 Poetry Challenge last Saturday. It is part of a longer sequence of love poems between an apewoman and  a birdman.
Esther is posting both the prompts we are using in the 3/30 challenge and her responses to them, including her brief and oblique reaction to Prof. Jones’ portrait, which she has titled ‘Hope’.
Den’s piece, on her blog Brain Candy, is a stream of consciousness on the nature of the self (and the human).
Thanks to Esther and Den for sharing their first drafts so publicly!
