Today’s Prompt


Write an aubade incorporating the concepts Decay, Fashion, and Haze.
If anything stands out in this prompt, it's Fashion. Perhaps you decide to ignore it entirely; perhaps you decide to write an aubade about the outfit a lover wore before departing. Or perhaps you write an aubade to a fashion trend long gone (or yet to come again). Do you miss apple bottom jeans? Y2K glasses? Perms? Flapper hats? (Then go to Bushwick!)
Here are some paintings and prompts.
Decay
What dead things are you holding onto?
Fashion
Use an article of clothing to represent your feelings and ideas.
Haze
What do you hear when you reach into the silence?
