Risa Rewritten
Description
Remember Captain’s Holiday (TNG, Season 3, Episode 19)?
Picard went to Risa for rest – and got none of it. Now it’s your turn to make sense (or nonsense) of it all… in verse.
Write a poem inspired by the events of “Captain’s Holiday.”
You may focus on one scene, tell the episode’s story from a new point of view, or reimagine it with humor, irony, romance, or tragedy.
Please use the Shakespearean sonnet format:
ABAB
CDCD
EFEF
GG
While there is no limit on the number of syllables, you should end up with 14 lines in total – no more no less.
Criteria
- Adherence to the prompt.
- Use of rhyme scheme and flow of language.
- Creativity and tone (humor, drama, or parody all welcome)
