Well??
What can I say that I have not already said about this community?
My 1-year anniversary is coming up and I have created something for that day.
If say I am not sad about this, I would be lying.
In one year I have met so many amazing people.
Did I get along with everyone no, but that is life isn't it?
This site had become a touchstone in my life.
Some where I could go to meet, post and sometimes be a support.
Weird, thought came to me The Sound of Music when she said when one door closes another opens. I believe that. It has to be hard to say...

Remember me
I am stillness under trees
garlands grasses glowing glee
geese fly into vermillion Vs
I am that one little seahorse
dancing among sharks
imaginary friends we called them
we practice in peril
holding space for dim light
each sighting a reminder
there are limited spaces
centuries sanctuaries ago
trees forests anoint
nostril air stirring
into quiet awakenings
these isles
where human remains
are weighed
in absence
urbanized...

So long dup
We all made friends here in a space dedicated to expression. Thanks to the webmistress for all the years of running an excellent poetry website.
I encourage you to start submitting your writing to magazines and online periodicals for publication. For everyday hundred rejections I've gotten there's an acceptance and that is an amazing feeling. I'd love for all of you to share in it.
Take care and good luck. It was great trading reads with you.

My Dystopian Novel
The longer you survive the more you defy him...
Love is inescapable
It takes more than physical strength to survive
Anyone can fall...
This website and all its contributors, have been a huge inspirational-motivational-emotional support over the years. Many people I met here have kept me writing.
The thought that my poems and stories have been read by anyone is more than I could ever have asked for.
I want to thank the Web Mistress, for all her hard work, along with the people who kept this site running.
Without the support...

Mirror Tango Twists of Kitty & Fang the Clown
Mirror Tango Twists of Kitty & Fang the Clown
(Concept by Dan Stafford
& Dialogue by John Hindle)
Kitty and Joke live in an alternate universe on the other side of a set of fun house mirrors in a creepy carnival.
Kitty tells Joke, “Hey this place is creepy, like the fun house mirrors at the amusement park I went too as a kid. The reflections in the looking glasses look like my multiple personalities.”
“Who are those other ladies in your psyche?”
“Let me introduce...

Suicidal Jodi
Jodi Arias.
[Alia laughs]
How do you want me?
Just like that.
Like that?
Yeah.
[Alia makes clicking noise with her mouth]
Wish I could say I wasn't crazy,
but I'm psycho, babe.
I'm suicidal Jodi.
Obsessed to death,
keep texting and texting,
accomplishing nothing.
I know you're gone.
But no one's never gone in my heart,
and that's the problem.
The dark side has shown,
and for that,
I must die.
Wish I could say I wasn't crazy,

My Cold Heart
I go into these moments where I shut off my emotions.
I shut off the side of me that cares too deeply.
I become cold like the world.
I become so fed up with the way the world treats me,
and yet I can't help blaming myself.
I'm no longer gonna give myself a hard time for shutting down, for not having the strength to continue my day. For sleeping much of the time. Still the perfectionist mind continues, relentlessly upset if I ate too much or if I didn't exercise enough or if I'm not acting perfectly moral.
I'm tired, and I don't have the capacity for...

seeking Polaris
geek out on me, baby
you don't know what your...enthusiasm...does to me
it's a true Dazzler
makes this girl wanna go Rogue
& Storm your Nightcrawler Beast
stalk your Mirage & its Mystique
don't Blink, baby
I might wreak Havok on your ass
I'm gonna throw out the opening Gambit
then step back
licking my lips over your wild Wolverine
talk Sunfire sexy to me
I mean...here I am
eying you sideways behind my Domino mask
with my Sunspot eyes
make me Mimic a Banshee
& howl at your Collosus
come on, baby...

The sweetest Journey
It was a whisper from my own heart,
telling me that it can’t be a Saturday for bed,
yet I did’t have much time to think about it.
I found myself into the bus sitting beside a stranger,
and all he said first was that am too big,
ohh God this person wants to end my day before it starts,
within a short moment I forgot everything,
cause the journey was worthy the patience.
Looking on the side I saw white space,
not a pure white but cloudy like,
ohh wow wait is that water?!!
yeah it was a lake.
