Challenge of Inspiration 4
Use the phrases below in a unique story or poem which begs a rejoinder of some kind from other Prosers. Responses need not be entered directly into the challenge--feel free to compose your response as a regular post, then put a link to it in the comments of the original piece so we can all find it. One winning original entry and one winning response entry will be blessed with a life-changing $10 prize! I know... it boggles the mind just to think on it. ______________Here are your challenge phrases: _______________ Fallen heroes, tempting fate, til it burns, in the eyes of strangers, like foreplay, for all the stars, torn apart, begging for mercy, Stairs of Valhalla, without a fight ____________ For clarity, when I say, "Bon chance, mes amis," that is NOT one of the phrases. **ahem** Bon chance, mes amis!

Bon chance, me amis

I sit alone

Pondering what I’ve done

Whether she’s in heaven now

Or the Stairs of Vahalla

I fucked up

I can't get the image of my reflection

In the eyes of a stranger, crying

Out of my head

Hands shaking

Going back

She was so pretty

Even torn apart

Like foreplay, when she’s begging for mercy

Now its over

And all the stars are telling me

To run

But i’ll stay and not go down

Without a fight

And she is mine

And she’ll stay here
