Word Nerd Wednesday: Overthrust

It's that time again, everyone! Word Nerd Wednesday is here, and with it, a rockin' good time. (Read: lame attempt at a subtle hint.) Our word this week is geological in origins (hence my funny joke above), but I'll let you look up the exact meaning of the word after you're done being creative. Or, you can cheat. But we'll all know. Somehow.

Find the definition here!

In case you're unsure about how to proceed with this prompt, check out our first Word Nerd Wednesday post for some clarity. And another awesome, uncommon word to inspire you to achieve new poetic heights...or something like that.

If you're too lazy to click, the process is pretty basic:

1. Get creative. Sketch, write, hum...flex your brain muscles around this word.
2. Freewrite or just plain write a poem with the title "overthrust".
3. Comment with your glorious creation and join in the fun! It's super awesome to see how many different paths one word can lead people down, so share your poem with our judgement and troll-free* community full of fellow word nerds.

Now, be free! Happy writing, everyone!
