The one word writing prompt of the day is MAYHEM. Here is a sample of what I’ve written using this word. Have Fun and Happy Writing!

 

There were people everywhere. I could smell rubber burning from a car that someone had set on fire. The fire was the only source of light in the blackness and looters gathered around it like moths to a flame. I crouched behind some thick hedges and watched as they shattered store fronts with baseball bats and bricks. I went numb as they carried out televisions, computers, and car stereo systems and shoved them into their cars. The city was crumbling around me. There was no justice, only mayhem.
