While on vacation, I took a writing workshop with a bunch of brilliant people. It wasn’t a time for serious critique, demanding attention, or long effort. Instead, we wrote quickly without too much thought, starting each time with a prompt or suggestion.

One of the exercises was similar to a haiku, but without the pressure. It’s just a three line bit of prose with two words on the first, three on the second, and then two on the third. It’s simple, but it was fun to play with.

Here are a few dirty ones I wrote this morning. You should try it. It’s fun.

kissing her
after kissing him
less scratchy

muffled moans
slow, strong, thrusts
thin walls

undressing her
as I watch
shy hands

sticky thighs
is it me
or him?

I return
on her stomach
I watch
