Hey, the 5 door question, choose between logic, love, virtue, morals, and chaos. I'm a very...erradic person, here's my answer... Chaos Brings order to the confusion Confusion Molds chaos into strength Chaos Keeping my life aligned Alignment Telling me what to do Chaos Without it life is boredom Boredom Forged by the refuse Chaos makes me consistently happy These eyes can never close And when it slows, gets all sappy I enjoy all of its throes Chaos makes life a myriad of schemes Always changing size and shape Patterns are forgotten between the seems Never will there be, a hole agape Without chaos’s love Slapping you with a glove Then your moral thought Would NEVER get stretched taught Chaos is a virtue It can never hurt you Logic can always fail Chaos always prevails "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not." ~RFK |

I guess somebody did choose chaos....i was wrong. Anyway I thought you did AMAZING!!! Great job on this one.......I thought you described it wonderfully....plus I liked how you just took all the other choices and basically pointed out why you didn't chose them. Nicely done. 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 |

Heh, well actually, I was avoiding telling specifically why I didn't chose the others. My specific example is actually a whole nother poem, but I don't know if I'm going to write it. "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not." ~RFK |

I don't see why chaos is such an uncommon choice. All the other 4 are part of chaos. The other 4 all form into lif,e which is only a series of chaotic situations. I told this to Allan kinda. The poet, would usually choose love, because it serves him (or her) best. The thinker would choose logic, because it suits him better. The blue collar would chose morals, or faith, because it's far more practical. And the warrior would choose virtue, becuase it's more agressive. I chose chaos, simply because it's synonymous with life. "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not." ~RFK |

interesting... i guess chaos is what makes us a better person....it's what guides us to learn good way of looking at things thanks for the read "So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S. |

I absolutely loved this. It is heading into the library. Chaos was just the perfect door for this challenge and you wrote about it so well! It's a different format to write and it turned out wonderful. Keep it up. ~AF~ "To alcohol! The cause of - and solution to - all of life's problems!" Homer Simpson |

Good choice, and good job of meeting the challenge "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle" "Life's short. If you don't look around once in a while you might miss it." BothUnknown |
