The exercise:
Write about something that has been: disguised.
I think my boys are born entertainers. Certainly in my parents eyes they are.
The silence in the house, now that they're asleep, is rather deafening.
Going to miss all that happy noise tomorrow while I'm at work. Thankfully I'll have the next four days off to make up for it.
Mine:
"The exhibit is magnificent - you've done an amazing job!"
"That's very kind of you. I'm particularly proud of this display."
"I can see wh... wait. Isn't that the artifact that was chewed up by our resident rat family?"
"It certainly is! You've got a keen eye."
"There was hardly anything left of it!"
"Yes, well, that's why I've got it almost entirely buried underneath artificial snow. Luckily for me the arctic discovery show was put into storage last week, so there was plenty of the stuff to go around."
"That's great and everything, but... wasn't that artifact dug out of an archaeological site in Egypt?"

The exercise:
Hey howdy. Happy Thursday!
I'm feeling a bit random tonight, be warned.
Let's see what comes of using this as the starter: disguises.
Mine:
Transform yourself with a thought,
Become someone else with naught
A care in this crazy world;
Forget the pain you endured -
That belongs to yesterday,
And you are made new today.
What to do with such freedom,
Who will you choose to become?
A thief, a hero, a ghost?
Or will you simply, like most,
Make the same tired mistakes,
But with a mask on your face?
