Synopsis

Flash Poems offers an anthology of poems and the prompts that inspired them. These 100-plus thought-provoking prompts will help you manage writer’s block and have fun in creative exploration. “You do not have to be what you are not,” poet Dixie Lubin writes in this lively and evocative collection of poems from the Second Sunday Goes Forth Writing Group. Readers will find ample inspiration and guidance on the everyday and extraordinary, such as how to “Simply step up on the pliant air/ And keep climbing” in Katherine Greene’s “Flying Dreams,” what makes the best chocolate cake, and ways to foster greater insight on everything from insomnia to aging to spring fever. This book also shares the sparks of many innovative writing prompts that readers will—and should—be compelled to try themselves. Altogether, these poems remind us, as Lubin writes, to “sing/ your own song. Listen. Give thanks./ Walk into the future with your arms/ wide open, your mind wide open.” ~ Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg, 2009-13 Kansas Poet Laureate, author of Miriam’s Well It is this month’s second Sunday and as I mount the porch’s wide wooden steps, laughter balloons out through the open door. Boisterous and merry! My heart warms in anticipation of the challenge of writing in response to an unknown prompt. In a way, our 2 hour meeting is like repeatedly standing in an open field just begging to be struck by lightning—and then, singing and dancing out the intense rush of energy in front of approving onlookers. Though responses might be painful or jubilant, there is a centering that often happens that soothes and invigorates! Contributing poets include: Deborah Altus, Micky Carroll, Iris Craver, Kimberli Eddins, Louie Galloway, Katherine Greene, Sandy Hazlett, Joanne C. Hickey, Nancy Hubble, Dixie Lubin, Ronda Miller, Amy Nixon, Gail Curtis Sloan, Libeth Tempero.
