2025 November PAD Chapbook Challenge: Day 14
For the 2025 November PAD Chapbook Challenge, poets write a poem a day in the month of November. Day 14 is to write a who blank poem.
For today’s prompt, take the phrase "Who (blank)," replace the blank with a new word or phrase, make the new phrase the title of your poem, and then, write your poem. Possible titles might include: "Who Knows," "Who's Next," "Whosoever Says That Again," and/or "Who Writes the Poems."
Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them. If you have a wild idea, follow it.
