How it works: Use the following quote in your poem anywhere: Add more of you to who you are and you'll be able to travel far It could be at the beginning, in the middle, at the end -- anywhere that suits you. You could even repeat it as often as you like, it is entirely yours to play with. Notes: Yes, this is improv so let it flow and yes it is poetry because improv is more than acting and because this site is intended to be a full tilt creativity generator.  Generate! -- doug smith

  Use the following quote to develop an improvised scene in three parts: Resistance causes friction; friction causes fire, and fire burns. Optional part four:  Resolve the fire.

Prompt: "If love is the natural order of things, we should stop resisting..." Situation: Any conflict. Contrast that conflict into a more natural order. Wind it down. Search for peace. "How do you make that happen?" "That's the challenge..."

The more we pretend the past doesn't matter the more likely it is to haunt us. Prompt: Improvise a scene during which at least one character avoids dealing with the past -- its thoughts, its actions, and its consequences. Notes: It's drama, so of course, ramp up the stakes and the consequences -- doug smith
