where words hang out

August 14, 2026: Kept

Drawers, cupboards, closets, and boxes have a way of collecting things we might need someday. Some eventually prove useful. Others wait patiently for a day that never seems to arrive.

Prompt: Write about something you keep “just in case.”

You could explore:

  • Why you kept it
  • When you last used it
  • What you imagine needing it for
  • Whether you could let it go
  • What else you’ve kept

Sometimes the things we keep tell us what we’re reluctant to lose.
