* the first library.

* Schrodinger's Heroes land in a dimension where time flows much slower, effectively dropping them into the past.

* What if a historian became a politician? Someone astute enough to recognize past patterns in current events.

* China and Italy discuss how to solve the rolling debt crises that are cascading from country to country now.

Thank you!

As closing procedures will be starting in another fifteen minutes or so, I likely will not get into depth into these until tomorrow, but I will get to them. I already have an idea as to how I want to write 3 of these.

Also, if you haven't already, could you signal boost this for tomorrow?

I have already boosted the signal, but I will edit the post to indicate that the call is open Saturday/Sunday.

Dreamwidth user, adeleij, who found me through the Silk Road Allies landing page, requested a poem in the 'verse about the current South China Sea territorial disputes.

It references your Silk Road Allies poem "The Tea Tempest".

Based on your prompt 'the first library', I have poem 'Alexandria'. For Schrodinger's Heroes is the poem 'A Crack in the Maelstrom', which features a special guest. Both these poems have been posted as today's freebies.

For your prompt, What if a historian became a politician?', I have the poem 'Trailing'.

That a historian could become a politician,
much less be appointed to the highest office
would have been preposterous,
if it was not that he claimed it was fate.

This one is available for purchase.

From your poem about the debt crises, I got the poem 'Averted', which directly follows the earlier poem 'Promised Land'.

With the China South Sea Crisis solved,
Napolitano retired with the President and Premier
back to his hotel. They ordered drinks
in place of tea, and sat tensely in the bar.
