This weekend we're asking for exactly 33 words inspired by the following photo.
Good luck!
The heated blaze
of the rapidly
enlarging sun
shifted directly
on the center
of the Antarctic town,
and the last, hazy,
precious drops
of moisture
steamed upward
in the square,
stealing last breaths.
Yeah, so I didn't major in physics or astronomy. Play along anyway!
Ooh! Doomsday, I didn't see that coming, very well done.
