Alright, I found an interesting website called Trifectra. During the week, they feature a writing contest called “Trifectra”, but on weekends, it’s the “Trifextra” contest.
Writers are limited to using 33 words to create something amazing. What’s cool is, the website allows you to make the post on your blog, as long as there is a link back to them, and link from their page to your blog.
Not only does this provide a slight SEO boost, but it’s a creative way for them to promote themselves. It’s definitively something to learn from. Here’s my submission to the contest;
Lagoon
Crust skull
protecting
the brooding mantle
bleeding
to core
beatific Mind
leaks champagne
observers hold cold
glasses upwards
awaiting the steady
drip, to brim the
cup, a lagoon
Drink!
Beautiful knowledge
ripples,
passed.

On to the weekend challenge. As you’ll recall from your elementary science class days, the structure of the earth can be divided most simply into three sections: core, mantle, crust. Here’s a diagram.
Give us 33 words from it. Interpret the prompt however you wish–literal, metaphorical, or somewhere in between. If you would like to use the image on your own blog, you must properly credit it.
Good luck!
