Here are your challenges for the Month. You may do as many or as few as you choose.
All compositions MUST be written by you.
The following are prompts to help inspire you - you are free to share other writings as well. If you participate in these challenges just be sure to Identify the Room you are writing in (ie "The Writer's Terrace - Name of Piece")

How did we get so mean?
How do we just move on?
How do you feel in the morning when it comes
And everythings undone?

Normally I'm so strong
I just can't wake up on the floor
Like a thousand times before
knowing that forever wont be
