Forbidden: adjective not allowed; banned
I've always been that person who, once told I was not allowed to do something, would do it anyway. Tell me I can't. I'll show you. Just watch me.
What about you? What are the "forbidden" things or actions in your world? Is it chocolate or sweets, gluten or meat? Perhaps a relationship or certain behaviors within a relationship? How do you respond to the "forbidden"?
As this is my final post for this OctPoWriMo and I'll be turning my attention to NaNoWriMo (If you participate and want to find me there, I am The Rabid Artist), it has been a real joy and honor to share the page with you this month! As always...
I wish you words,
Amy McGrath

We're almost to the end! Wow!
I think I have a Kyrielle gone rogue, it started as one but changed. This one is called Vaults of administration, and it's scary - to me: https://unassortedstories.wordpress.com/2017/10/30/2672/
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy :)

My (tame) poem for day 30. I may write a wilder one, but it probably won't make it to this page!

ReplyDeletePrompt - Forbidden
‘FORBIDDEN ‘ -
The forbidden word for a free spirit... in search of Freedom.
Freedom with a responsibility to one's duty....
A rebel says, ‘who forbids whom anyways....’.
This is a power and popularity game...
Who belongs to the game, who are the players and who is played???
It all depends .......
FORBIDDEN
World busy forbidding others
World preoccupied banning others
World obsessed conforming others
Forbidding who, ..only depends
Then, an absolute forbidden world
Opposite, love and compassion
Lonely, restricted, hurting life
Forbidden by whom, it depends
The fire mouth forbidden, denied
The sharp words forbidden, banned
Words that hurt forbidden, conform
Forbidding who, it depends
Same words, different reaction
In need of a protective shield
To bounce back the very words that hurt
Forbidden by whom, it depends
I don’t understand, unsaid rules
They drive me crazy, make me cross lines
For the lines are fuzzy, rebel dare cross
Forbidding who, it depends 😊💕🙏sr
Forbidden
