Excellent The importance of freedom Prisoner by Heather Knight      The Prisoner Contest Winner

I shouldn't be here. I don't deserve it. I look through the bars and see freedom. I see where I want to be. My life's a series of never-ending days. A chain of boredom tied around my neck. Fantasies of fleeing fill my mind. What if I could get out? What would I do then? Where would I go? These visions are intoxicating. They're my only reason to live. And then one day, my dream comes true. The little one has left the door open by accident. I fly away into the sky... 'Mum! Mum! The canary has escaped!' Writing Prompt In 100 words, or less, write a short story--not necessarily a flash-fiction, though it could be--on the theme/subject/topic of 'prisoner'. It could be literal or metaphoric.
