Think about a perpetrator in your event. Or think about a victim. This could be the you from day 2, the something from day 3, the black sheep, someone else entirely, or a group of people.
Write down three questions you’d want to ask them. Write a letter poem using the three questions. “Dear” isn’t required. Can you start with the last line from yesterday’s poem?
Favorite line
Favorite line from yesterday? I can’t decide between

and
its secrets spilled in the sink
What was your favorite line from yesterday?
Oh, wow, that oyster line is really great!
I think I’ll go with “small lives slip—insect to pest” although it’s tough because I managed a lot of wonderful enjambments in this particular draft.
