Unlike baboons, our butts aren't flaming red.
As a consequence, humans have a harder time hooking up.

The End of Y2K

Ah Y2K, we hardly knew ya'. Where the biggest disaster in the USA wasn't the high tech computing machines in the begining, but the low tech punch ballots at the ending. Who'da thunk?

(And remember, people with some time and money that they can afford to invest in their writing and a chance to see Europe-- A Hard Work, Hard Writing, Week Long Writing Work Out, run by a close close friend of my family.)

Another good month awaits you!

Kirk, Blender-Keeper

shenanigan

Two by scqueen. The first is a quick clever idea. The second is a longer prose piece that really captures a certain anxiety.
Sweet The Sound By Gala.

antivalium By the guppy.
A wish.
Crush By Wing.
Who is Wing trying to reassure in the last line?
excerpt By Margaret Atwood.
Submitted by slug. She submitted it with a disclaimer, but I don't think the roles expressed in this brief quote have anything to do with sexism.
TenderNear By Mira.
Submitted by Mirabeau Chapin. Soothing.
Another not to By jackryhme.
The first few lines appealed to the Samuel Beckett in me.
Cherry Coke By Angel no1halo@yahoo.com.
Neat little plea. And not just because I like Cherry Coke. Do they still make Diet Cherry Coke? Man, that stuff used to be my favorite.
