Challenge question: Describe the taste of water...
...to someone who's never drank it.
I thought with all these heavy threads going around recently we could do with something a little lighter. My old creative writer teacher used to quiz us with these types of questions as warm ups. The hard part about this one is describing it without using an absence reference, such as "like biting into an orange without the citrus flavor."
My answer:
Water tastes like clean, mountain spring air that has become so heavy it flows into your mouth like a playful breeze.
