Five Minute Freewrite: deep groan
Find the prompt here:
Deep groan. Deep groan. Deep groan. Deep groan. When do I deep groan? Maybe sometimes if my body gets sore. But I don't think I deep groan very often. It's interesting, let's say, to hear a person making lots of sounds when stretching in a small group setting. The setting, in this case, is choir. I've been in choirs off and on since I was eight years old and in choir, you stretch together sometimes, to warm up the body before singing, because singing is a whole body exercise. And sometimes a person is a noise maker, a stretching groaner. And part of me is like, come on, do you really have to subject the rest of us to your grunts and groans? And another part of me is super judgy of the judgy part of me, and says, live and let live already! It's none of your business if that person grunts and groans. There's no part of me that isn't judgy, I guess. It's like when I have to listen to people cut their fingernails, especially in a totally public setting like a bus or something. Like, it's got nothing to do with me except for the ACCOST ON MY EARS, which very much has to do with me. I guess this is maybe why so many people walk around with ear buds. But I don't do that and I don't really want to start doing that. I like hearing the world around me. I just don't like hearing the parts of it that feel out of place for the settings I'm in. I'm mainly talking about nail clipping now, I can certainly see how grunts and groans go along with stretching, I'm not a fool.
