(35 of 40) Places to Hide

Here's another essay idea.

Where have you hidden? Imagine writing a piece (a poem, prose poem, or creative nonfiction) in which you list every place you can remember hiding during your life.

The places could be physical, and they could be emotional. Some of the items could include mini-scenes or quick descriptions of those you hid from. You might want to include a time someone hid from you. (I remember my youngest daughter hiding in the clothes rack at Mervyn's, causing the entire store to lock down while we searched for her.)

Number the parts, or just separate each one with an asterisk. See what happens.
