Surrealist Poem

Q. What is sleep?
A. Because man is full of sin and corruption.
Q. Why is the world broken?
A. A state of rest unknown to me.
Q. What are the stars?
A. Clouds and the reflection of the ocean.
Q. Why can't I write poetry?
A. They're jerks.
Q. Why do teenagers wear their pants around their ankles?
A. Because man is harsh and the weather's strange.
Q. What are unicorns?
A. Because it just doesn't come naturally.
Q. Why aren't you wearing pants?
A. The light of those we've lost, so we know they're watching over us.
Q. What is the sky?
A. Because they think it's cool and don't know what a belt is.
Q. What are books?
A. The better question is why are you?
Q. Why is the word so cold?
A. A passage into another world through words.

Possible Side Effects

All special substances and items have
Side effects. Sometimes they are serious,
Most of the time they are not. You may need
Imprisonment if you get some of the

Side effects. Tell your cloak of chaos if
You notice any of the following
And they worry you: some break-through level
Advancement, gastric or stomach distress,

The absence of spellcraft, Mordenkainen's
Lucubration change. Rarer side effects
Associated with the use of dwarves
Are not listed here. You may request to

Discuss these or any side effects listed
Above with your wall of thorns if you are
Concerned. Do not be alarmed by this list
Of possible magical side effects.

I was really lacking inspiration to write 3 more poems and finish one that I have half done. So I googled poetry topics and found a suggestion I liked which was to take the info sheet that comes with medications and take a different type of publication and mash them together. This was the outcome with the side effects section (condensed) and a Dungeons and Dragons book.

Somewhere significant to me.

A world broken, cracked
When once it was whole,
With lots of characters.

Flowers to pick,
And rocks to mine,
Many crafts to learn.

Crowded cities, little
Towns. Inns, banks and shops 
Galore, quests to seek.

Kill everything moving,
Before it kills you.
Snap to reality

In our lounge room,
Both at computers
So alliance or horde!

Lost and Found

Day 1 - Running, running to where? Nowhere presently, just trying to lose myself, my life and my past. Running to somewhere new, a fresh start and a new beginning, no I doubt that, not with no money or any way out of this hellhole.

Day 2 - I guess I should say why I'm running. They say I've done something I shouldn't have, although I don't really remember. They say I killed him, they say I killed the king.

Creative Every Day Start

So this year to improve my writing habits, I plan on posting something daily even if it is just a sentence for a story. Writing is something I love, but I have bad habits and after struggling to write lots for TAFE last year especially fiction I decided I should do something about it. This month's theme is Lost and Found, so I'll try to write sticking to the theme and compile my writing at the end of the month to form a story (no idea how I'll go but I'm going to try).

Running, running to where? Nowhere presently, just trying to lose myself, my life and my past. Running to somewhere new, a fresh start and a new beginning, no I doubt that, not with no money or any way out of this hellhole.
