I hear the cacophony of disaster
I raise my head to the churning maelstrom
Fear and wind propel me forward
To the descant sound of
The hammering cellar door.

This week, one of your offerings is the phrase “cellar door”. “Cellar door” is considered a perfectly euphonic phrase, some say the most beautiful in the English language. Also we could use the word propeller and write at the merge of both those prompts.
Nice twist to take the simple beauty of a euphonic phrase and weave it into something powerful and a bit terrifying.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, compact, efficient use of imagery
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast here between the feelings of power-and powerlessness. Vividly and strikingly done in so few words!
ReplyDeleteBonus points just because I love the word "cacophony".
ReplyDeleteThis was pure genius, in my book!
I love that you used the word "descant"!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly how I imagine a tornado. I could see it!
ReplyDeleteNicely done. I could feel the tension and expediency building. Reminded me a bit of Poe.
ReplyDeleteLovely.
