Day 24

Wow. Wow wow wow. Wow. Today's mood: <https://youtu.be/xUNqsfFUwhY>. Take a minute today to consider that there is good in the world. Then get to work.

The task for today is ten ten-word stories that together make a poem. The idea is that each of these ten word long sentences create a self contained emotion and that also if I string them together they will make a story.

She dragged herself out of bed with a Herculean force.
Dresses meant she didn't have to match two different garments.
Her lipstick, like war paint, served to intimidate the enemy.
Morning sunshine was soft but the day was rock hard.
The radio played hard rock and she refused to cry.
She compulsively checked her phone but there no messages.
Despite skipping breakfast, she was late to microbiology class again.
Microbiology was meaningless in the context her own heartbreak
She was a good scientist but exhaustion weighed her bones
How could she grow bacteria when her heart felt dead?
