Cats and rubber bands
(Preview)
My son wrote this and I like it. Cats and rubber bands My kitty likes his rubber bands. He stalks them like they're mice. He leaps: they bounce and wiggle. He thinks that's very nice. He stretches them between his claws, they leap, and he gives chase. We're bound to find the silly things in almost any plac...

Sci Fi book
(Preview)
My brother and I have finished writing our science fiction book and have sent it to friends to read and critique. The strange thing is the wide range of feedback. There are some who only read through the book because they're our friend (they came out and stated as much). There are others who couldn't put...

Trust

Trust, one sided, is given in vain and when given too soon, unsound. Confidence withheld a wise man makes til true loyalty is found.

Mourning
(Preview)
I try to fathom the scope of eternity; all time stretching beyond visibility into brightness that burns the eyes and doesn't reveal tomorrow. Today you are gone. And today I hurt. And today I have regrets. I cannot find you in eternity from my place in today. I try to squint into the brightness for a peek...

Among the Living
(Preview)
I read that Hiccups is the new moderator here. Congratulations! I better give you something to moderate. :) On the outside I observe but too seldom do I serve. And I question if I live. Note after note I write about what is in my sight. I want to feel that my emotions are real. I want to be apart of the pulse an...

prayers you are offering
(Preview)
I have had a couple people at Bountiful say that they would pray for me. One was months ago and another was very recently. I think to myself how happy I feel most of the time despite my condition and no how much others are in need of prayer. However, I have also pondered how my ability to function may be in...

Here's my latest piece of art to discuss for the Month of December. The Milkmaid by Vermeer - in aprox. 1660 It's a beautiful piece, by a very talented and decent sounding fellow, Jan Vermeer, who lived so long ago and in such contented obscurity that nobody knows much about him, except that he was a fami...

Making Time to Write

Alrighty, writers? What are some things you do to make time for writing? Recently I'm on the tail end of finishing a book. I find myself finding excuses NOT to write, so that I won't feel the need to start the next project. Feeling a lot of anxiety, cuz I used to have a lot of energy and wrote a lot in the early...

Challenge: Rewrite this poem

I thought it might be fun to see how others would rewrite a poem. Would you make it longer? shorter? funnier? deeper? more ironic? change it completely? Here's the concept: I'll post a poem I'm not emotionally attached to. You are all challenged to rewrite it however you want. After a few people rewrit...

Poem: Criticism

Criticism (by RayB) The vulgarity of neutrality -- the profundity of absurdity. A neutral face cries a thousand stories All crafted by parched innuendo A poor caricature of the character Of a soul's glimmer divine-- Reflecting solely the image of she Who crafted that daft innuendo And he who dared b...
