CHALLENGE #1: OBJECT WRITING
Day 8/14
“WHO” Writing
5 minutes – “Cyclist”
I was leading the middle pack of racing cyclists up the steep hill. Suddenly, one of the front-runners crashed to the pavement, causing a number of us to crash and pile up over him. My bike was ruined! The tire bent. Would my crew be able top fix it? Would I e able to finish the race? The tension was thick as several other biker’s felt the same
10 minutes –“Ballerina”
I watched the beautiful ballerina take her bow and gracefully exit the stage. I followed her backstage at the close of the performance to take her home for the evening to celebrate.
I opened the door to her dressing room to see her caring for her bloody toes. She smiled warmly and waved me over.
I was taken aback still at how her beauty and expression covered up the discomfort she kept beneath.
I handed her the water bottle and a bowl of ice for her sore toes. At home, after a warm bath to soothe the aching muscles, I would deeply massage away her beautiful torment. The pain carefully hidden from view. An intimacy only for me.
90 seconds – “Puppy”
The golden puppy snuggled warmly and wiggly into the girls open arms, with tail wags and kisses meant only for her.
