Great idea, Jeremy! Okay, let's give it a go! Everyone write a Senryu about the day of your birth! (for those who don't know, senryu format is as follows-- 5 syllables 7 syllables 5 syllables now get crackin'!) Here's mine-- "November 6, 1984" glamour glows with greed gremlinesque is this small child one more mouth to feed That's mine! Now all of you, a Senryu about the day of your birth! What you think occurred, what you KNOW occurred, anything special about this day. Floor's open. ~_^ [This message has been edited by Allan Riverwood (edited 01-11-2001).] |

I promise I'll come back sometime today and type a better reply  "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |

My birthday sucks.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Yeah, I'm back. I don't have a better reply though. Nice job on the poem, maybe I'll take the challenge "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |
