Interesting idea for a poetry/short-short story challenge
Found by way of lyons_love
The second assignment was very interesting. We read a poem about basketball called "Shooting Baskets," by Christopher Bursk. It was a fairly long poem, with some great words in it. So, we had to write out own poem, using ONLY words from this one. It had to be at least sixty words long, and we could only repeat a word if it was repeated in the poem. It took me a few tries to get it the way I wanted it, but I did! Here is the link: http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2411697/1/
