Otherworldly: 5 Minute Freewrite

in freewrite •  7 years ago  (edited)

Prompted with lovely artwork by @loliboofae


They often felt otherworldly

apart

as though looking through a window

at the world around Them


and by the world

They meant the planet

in microcosm

and macrocosm


They knew that they could see things differently

from the way others' vision

seemed limited,

taking situations

as problems to be fixed

instead of adventures to be explored


it was almost as if

They observed with three wide eyes

while others squinted out of two

What a lovely poem! I particularly liked the end. The comparison was very...vivid!
Good job!

Excellent work with the image. I, too, really like the punchline. It speaks volumes!

So much love the ending, it sound mystical.
