Morbid But Effective Writing Prompt: The Last Thing You Ever Write
You are going to die later today.
You really are.
I’m sorry to be the one to tell you.
Now, what will you write before that happens?
You are not actually going to die today!
But if you can find a way to feel in your body that you might, your mind will sharpen and today’s writing will become urgent, true, and the most important thing you can say.
Use your amazing imagination and think about it:
You’re on your bed. People you love are there watching for you to close your eyes and breathe your last breath. They’re watching your heart monitor get slower and slower.
You realize how much you’ve focused on the wrong things.
You realize you had so much to say.
You just discovered the meaning of everything.
They are all crying, trying to imagine the world without you in it.
And someone pushes through the crowd and says, “Here you’ve got pen, paper, energy, and mental focus for one hour. Write something.”
What do you write?
