We All Die Alone – Introvertical Poem – Creative Writing Prompt
August 26, 2013Here is my attempt at an introvertical poem for this week’s writing prompt on ‘We Drink Because We’re Poets’. As I was reading about the prompt I was thinking of the Evil Dead movie and I remembered a lyric or a quote from somewhere. It seemed to fit and some words came out and then this is the final result.

We All Die Alone
We hunched in the hunting shack; the woods creaking around us.
All knew what was outside and what chance we had not to
die. The rustling of leaves scraped like jagged nails on our minds.
Alone and sick of the terrible waiting another one of us fled into the night.
