Hello Mini-Bangers!
So here's the deal. It is the first of October - which means it's Prompt Time!
Give me one to 500 words. A story, a poem, a conversation, a character study - whatever - based on something that inspires you from this. Maybe the feeling of the song, an image from the video, a line of the lyrics, or maybe someone just likes the song - Whatever strikes you. Surprise me, surprise characters, maybe even yourself. Most of all - have fun.
Fair warning, the song is a little sad, maybe even a little creepy with the video - but hey it's October and fall and a time of change. I'd love to see someone come up with something funny from this. You can post your piece in the comments or just post the link in comments, that's up to you too.
I'd love to hear what part of the song/video/name of the band inspires you, but including that is not required.
Your submissions MUST be submitted by midnight on Halloween. Make as many submissions as you like, so long as it's not all the same story/poem/study.
The Lengths
Black Keys
Tell me where you're goin',
What is goin' wrong,
I felt you leavin',
Before you'd even gone,
Hold me now,
Or never, ever,
Hold me again,
No more talk,
Could take me from this,
Pain I'm in,
Pain I'm in,
See the moonlight shinin',
On your window pane,
See it leave you,
As faithful as it came,
Please yourself,
So you don't have to,
Be afraid,
Make amends,
Or carry on another way,
Another way,
Oh~oh,
Tell me what you were thinkin',
To treat somebody so,
The care he took,
The lengths to which he'd go,
The coals are hot,
To walk across,
Without your shoes,
But in the end,
Know that you've got nothing to lose,
Nothin' to lose,
Oh~oh, oh~oh.
I really hope this is fun for you all. I really look forward to seeing what you write. May the typing and scribbling begin!
