Prompt Six — “Brain Candy,” based on Episode 406 of Project Runway, in which the designers were taken to the Hershey’s flagship store in Times Square and were told that they had five minutes to grab whatever they could as raw materials — from Twizzlers to Hershey’s syrup, from Hershey’s pillows to economy-sized bags of peanut butter cups — to use to create an outfit of fashion.
The poet will construct a poem consisting of fifty (50) lines. Each line must include one (1) of the candies, sweets, or delectable treats* found in the Spreadsheet of Fashion below, which lists ninety (90) fashionably edible sweets (the large version of the Spreadsheet of Fashion can be found by clicking here, or by simply clicking on the image below).
The poet may incorporate the products any way she chooses. For example, the poet could have actual Rolos in a line. Or, to incorporate a Peppermint Pattie into a line of her poem, the poet could include the words “pepper,” “mint,” “pat,” and “tie” in the line.
*yes, I am quite aware that the rhyming here is absolutely horrendous
