What I Want My Words To Do


My words are a powerful source that brightens your day. The detail in every sentence designs a movie in your head. My explanations explode off of the paper. I want to grasp the reader’s attention by lunging details toward them. I want to penetrate their minds’ so they are in my shoes. I want my words to punch the reader in the face because of details. I want my reader to replay my writing as if it was a recording. I want the reader to read my words then shut their eyes, so my writing is splattered in their mid like a vision. Lastly, I want my words to make the reader wander what’s next.
