Dear Daily Aftershock readers and podcast listeners, the next week of prompts will be short ones as I deal with other Aftershock work and stuff in my personal life.

Today I want you to write a poem based on a rule you broke, and what it gave you.

This could be literal, like breaking Lockdown in search of friends or family or company.

Or it could be emotional: letting someone new love you, when you thought all was lost.

Forget the morality involved in these things and instead find the poem that begs to be written within it.

In other news I will begin changing the past podcasts to paid so if you want full access please consider upgrading!
