Poetry Meme

[lost_spook]

I decided my writing gears needed a bit of a kick start and hunted out the tried and tested poetry meme. The quotes were especially random this time, but it still worked:

1: Pick five fandoms. List them in alphabetical order.

2: Visit this site to find your first RANDOM POEM OF POWER. Write down the 5th line (yes, even if it's an E.E. Cummings

Very good.

I've a feeling I'd fail miserably at the 50 word limit imposed in this.

No, wait, I KNOW I'd fail!

Thank you!

And, heh, well, all memes are not for all people! I can do demi-drabbles and drabbles, but I have learned that I fall over hard if people expect me to count sentences instead of words. :-)

[persiflage_1]

Yes true. I am very bad at writing drabbles, my ideas run away with me.

ETA: What are you supposed to do, though, if the poem's only 4 lines long? (Hello, Phillip Larkin, you scoundrel, you!)

[lost_spook]

Well, if a poem's only 4 words long, I get a different one! I don't think you can count non-existent lines. :-)

Holmes is up one tree, Moriarty is up another. Unless they're going to throw sandwiches at one another, I don't see much happening before suppertime.

LOL!

Old telly is never off-topic here! I think this is pretty good for specific searches: lostshows.com or there's a missing episodes forum - and probably others. I usually just Google specific shows, really.

I'm so tempted to do this... and remove that sodding word limit. Why not...

[persiflage_1]

Haha! A person after my own heart.

(Sodding word limit indeed!)

LOL I always hate 'write in 50 words' NO. I refuse to squish the muse.

Plus, the couples I write for tend to be... very chatty.

The shortest fic I've written for my current OTP is 500+ words! LOL
