Reena’s Xploration Challenge #309

Welcome back!

PROMPT #309 – OPPOSITES

The picture above depicts our theme for the week but is not the prompt.

I scanned the net for poems on Opposites and was stuck at two brilliant lines, in a poem by Dzejnieks.

It’s just… Me sipping through dimensions.
Both so different I consider them almost parallel.

You can read the full poem here.

Now, about the writing prompt.

You can choose any one of the following options. If you feel exceptionally inspired, feel free to write more than one piece, or get them all together in one. The choice and creativity is yours,

  1. Choose two people, concepts or theories which are opposites of each other. Write a dialogue, two paragraphs or two stanzas to bring out the perspective of each side. You can use a conflict, war or a debate as a backdrop.
  2. Choose the above image as your inspiration.
  3. Weave in the two lines from the poem given above in your piece – be it poetry or prose. Give due credit to the poet.

Yesterday, I faced problems in pasting a link in Comments on MLMM. Sarah Wiley advised me to use the List option. It seems to be working today. Let me know if there is an issue in pasting links in the comment box. Ping-backs are pre-approved, so hopefully those should be visible.

There is no restriction on format of the piece. There is no last date either, unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap. 

Any post that is found to be offensive, vulgar or something that hurts common sensibilities will not be included. This needs to be a safe space.

Create a post on your blog, and copy-paste the link in Comments. In case you are using a pingback, do check back to see if it has worked.

The feminists, humanists and individualists amongst you are welcome to follow us at
