Help! by Debra White
The Prisoner writing prompt entry

I'm completely trapped.

A prisoner in my own home.

It's no use me shouting for help; I'm home alone and nobody will be back for hours yet.

I'll just have to wait for someone to come and set me free and pray I don't suffocate in the meantime.

I hate small spaces. I'm wrapped up like a mummy and the panic is setting in.

My heart is trying to break out of my chest, I can hardly breathe and I need air.

The harder I try to get out of this stupid duvet cover, the more stuck I'm becoming... Help!


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.

Author Notes
It's happened to me more than once. Changing duvet covers is not a task for the faint hearted!
