APRIL FOOLS'! (If you're in Australia, otherwise early or late April Fools' I guess.)
The monthly prompts will continue with all the same rules etc, except that I will no longer be selecting winners... which means there's no cut off date for submitting your poems! Take as long as you want, just make sure to share the link in the comments so I, and anyone who wants to read the entries, can find them easily.
Here's the link to the March Edition Winners, and here are the links to the previous months' prompts if you want to check them out:
And here are...
The Prompts:
- Sabotage
- Strawberry
- Disposable
- Cassette
- Glass
Happy writing! :)

Prologue Today's post is short fiction in honor of all the hassled parents trying to keep their angsty teens in line. "Bye mum! I'm not coming home for lunch today. I'll be going to Mac's with Kelvin and his buddies before we head to his house to study for a test." With that, Adam Lim careened like the Flash out of his humble HDB abode.

Poppy! I wrote one for this prompt, like 2 weeks ago, but I don't wanna publish it to Vocal because it might be publishable elsewhere (I rather love it). I'm torn!! (Maybe Discord?)
Decided to just focus on one prompt this time: https://vocal.media/poets/see-me-m4q60hgt. Thanks for the prompts!
Oh heck I didn't actually include the link lol Here it is: https://vocal.media/poets/fragile-v41p03ff
Here's my first one: https://vocal.media/poets/i-can-be-scary-too
I finally got around to doing one of these prompts! I tried something that I instantly regretted. Here it is - https://vocal.media/poets/strawberry-hill
Ooo, I love these words and I finally managed to get one in for your wonderful prompt series :) Here is my attempt! https://vocal.media/poets/manifestations-of-love
Here is another attempt. This one peeled jagged https://vocal.media/poets/neat
My turn... https://vocal.media/poets/evisceration
Here is one https://vocal.media/poets/she-was-the-world
As a cautionary note - this is all your fault Poppy. when two worlds collide. My instance on not playing by the rules and your fine ass words. Well done, you did this. You made me do this. Okay...is that enough of an out? https://vocal.media/poets/puzzle-lqq8071s
Here's a bit of family nostalgia... https://vocal.media/poets/shaylee-s-sweet-strawberries
On it!
Thanks again for another set of interesting prompts.
Here you go! https://vocal.media/poets/strawberry-ruse Thank you for your prompts!
So...looks like I might be first out the starting block - https://vocal.media/poets/me-ves-y-sufres - makes a bloody change, eh? Sorry for the sadness in this one.
My heart was GLASS but you thought it was DISPOSABLE. Think you can SABOTAGE me? Think again because I have everything to bring you down in that CASSETTE. It's either that or Karma would push STRAWBERRIES up your ass. You choose. That's what Mr Brain came up with, lol. I'm glad it doesn't have a deadline. I'll see what I can do.
Yay!! More!!!!! Ooh, i Love the words…”cassette” is my fave right now. Nice update. I think removing the winners is a solid change. Gives it a more creative focus. I’m thrilled to try this one, VB! 😊❤️
Looking forward to reading many masterpieces inspired by April’s prompts.✅🤩
Woohoo! Cheers to another round of great prompts!!
Let's be honest, I completely forgot that tomorrow is April 1st. Thanks for the reminder! So excited for the new prompts!
BOOM! Another Poppy's Prompt Thingo. Excited about this, as ever!
