Reena is the host of Reena’s Exploration Challenge
PROMPT #130
In this week, write a piece which includes any one or more of the following phrases
Once upon a lifestyle
Once upon a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
~*~
Once in a lifetime
We are caught in a maze
Running around and not finding a way out
Trying to center ourselves and yet off balance
The hope is to escape this maze while alive
~*~
Once upon a lifestyle
There is a unique demand for a change
No one had visualized this scenario before
Friend and lovers apart by necessity not force
Staying home mandatory not a gleeful choice
Work looks more enticing that countless days off
~*~
Once upon a lifetime
We have this choice to heal
Instead of plundering, we can rebuild
Doing nothing has more benefits
Than doing harm by excessive activity
Staying off the roads is…

It seems like eternity
imprints of past lives on dirty, stained walls leading to exit doors the journey seems like eternity If I wash myself clean will they not see the stains and believe I’ve changed the journey seems like eternity will conditioned mindsets return egged on by sunlight the journey seems like eternity https://sundayphotofiction.com/2020/04/12/sunday-photo-fiction-apr-5-2020-2/
A battle of will
A battle of will …. by Aishwarya
Nature’s complex creation,
Man, right from formation,
To cessation,
A wide variety of emotions, he feels,
He deals,
With overthinking, things in his control and away,
Slowly, comparison, jealousy, baseless competition, in his self, they stay,
Trivial nothings to sleepless nights they make way,
Reality seems reel,
Fantasy seems the only way to heal,
Denial, only way of acceptance,
Wastage of time seeks no admittance,
Everything comes to a standstill,
Amidst, a battle of will.

Held hostage

Portrait
venom concealed in expressions eyes belying fake smiles I tried to make you look good without computer applications…. I mourn dried collars in my palette they shrivelled of inadequacy Black dominates your depiction https://dversepoets.com/2020/04/09/the-perfect-seven-lines/
Agenda
The station reminded her of some great creature, its constant machine whir breathing around her as she worked. It appeared to have a will of its own, not subjugated to human thought processes. She knew it they would come for him, but Herbert refused to listen to her at that point of time. She felt a … Continue reading Agenda
Reena’s Exploration Challenge #130 — Same as it ever was
Talking Heads … a share by Jade Li/Lisa
Once in a Lifetime made me think of the song by Talking Heads with that for the title. The lyrics in the song examine a person’s life through the choices and their responses to those choices. The song could be a template, where you could customize it with the experiences you’ve had based on your choices and the questions those choices and experiences raise. The reality is that each moment of our lives is a unique, converging intersecting opportunity, where our choices shift the configuration of the all. I think they call it the butterfly effect. I used to think that minutely examining past moments and trying to troubleshoot and learn from them was the most valuable thing to do to have a better quality of experiences in the future. The shocking realization that the now was being left out of the equation hit me hard right between the eyes…
